Research Paper

Exam 3:

Instead of exam 3, we will have discussions. It is impossible not to talk about everything that’s been going on so we will talk about it.

Each one of you has a country that you are in charge of (the country you are signed up to present). So I ask you to research effects this pandemic and the global drop in oil prices (which started as an indirect result of this pandemic but by now turned into its own thing) has on “your” country, in terms of:

• o   Expected GDP
• o   Export/Import
• o   Currency

I also want you to research what steps “your” country takes to help their economy at this difficult time (I am not talking about medical aid to the people and enforcing social distancing; we focus purely on the economic measures). As an example, I am attaching a recent article from the New York Times that talks about actions taken by some Scandinavian countries.

As a result of this research, you will produce a summary post (500-750 words, not counting references).
