Memo #3 – In memo format (format will be provided on D2L), 2 pages or less, provide a

short summary of the following chapters, identify key takeaways from the chapter(s), and

provide a current and relevant example where this is in play (typically, you will find this in the

news. DO NOT PROVIDE AN EXAMPLE FROM THE TEXTBOOK):

• Ch. 6 – International Trade Theory

• Ch. 7 – Government Policy and International Trade

I suggest you think of the key point or two that you want to get across in your memo and provide an example that incorporates the key point(s) of all the related material. Do not simply define or describe what the chapters are about. Your memo should be written in such a way that you can demonstrate your understanding of the material (in assigned chapters and any other material provided on that topic).
