24 Oct What are some of the benefits of free and open international trade
For this discussion board, I want you all to think about the issue of international trade very broadly, from a policy perspective.
I would like you to think of the purposes of the Bretton Woods Conference. I would like you to think of a nation’s interests in protecting the economic welfare of its own citizens. I would also like to consider any other issues raised in this module.
What are some of the benefits of free and open international trade, in which barriers to commerce between nations are either very minimal or non-existent? What are some of the downsides? If you were a member of the US Congress, what type of legislation would you support on this issue, and why?
On the second page, there is a screenshot from the book about the Bretton Woods Conference, you can read it and use it to get a better understanding of the Conference.
