intro
gf: intl economic cooperation - trade and investments (MNCs)
af1: usa provision of aid
trade > provision of aid
aid > econ coop (crucial in earlier years to rebuild)
econ coop ultimately the key factor (overall ties eveyrthing tgther; mncs)

loa:
1. International economic cooperation was undoubtedly important for the growth of the global economy - multilateral organisations such as World Bank, IMF and GATT
2. International political cooperation also played a supporting role in the growth
of the global economy as only selected allies of the USA received defense and/or financial aid in their fight against Communism.
3. compare gf and af
4. limitations of gf as the success of international economic cooperation hinges on the economies that make up the international economic system.]]> 2022-03-31 06:57:19 UTC https://padlet.com/keith_lee_kum_chuen/cf2i5kcxjyafengn/wish/2123010977 Anonymous hayzeellx8 https://padlet.com/keith_lee_kum_chuen/cf2i5kcxjyafengn/wish/2123013324 It was interesting to see that an essay can still be a good one with only one AF1 (Air force 1)

Intro: 
  • Define Golden Years 
  • Define what it means by “the state” 
  • Raise alternate factors (e.g US aid, MNCs, FDI - trade and investments) 

Given factor: State (government) 
  • Japan case study 
  • Govt make informed choices → decide what to do w marshall aid 

Alternate factor: 
  • Investments and trade from MNCs / FDI
  • E.g Texas instruments

Compare given/ alternate factor 
  • State more important, as e.g us aid was only for a short period of time/ govt still needed to facilitate MNCs and also ensure the country’s economic prospects are attractive for the MNCS to invest in

time frame: 1945-1971
key words: Cold War, development of the global economy
GF: Cold War

PARA #1: The Cold War allowed for the paradigm shift in American policies. 

PARA #2: The Cold War pushed America towards providing monetary aid for global economies.

PARA #3: However, the Cold War also had detrimental negative effects on the economy, as resources were allocated to the military instead of towards economic development.

CONCLUSION: When comparing between the positive and negative impacts of the Cold War, the positive impacts of the Cold War outweigh the negative ones. Using the criteria of how long the impacts last, the long-term positive impacts of kickstarting the economy through provision of aid from the US and establishment of institutions such as the Bretton woods system are more significant than the short term division of resources within the US. The negative impacts of the Cold War could also be easily mitigated in the long term as the growing economy was able to make up for the loss in economic growth due to military spending. (include some egs) As such, the Cold War largely brought about positive impacts to the development of the global economy from 1945 to 1971.
