Economics 364
 Project 2

  Due  March 16, in my mailbox, no later than 5 p.m.



 
Find out what your country’s major imports and exports are.  List the five top imports and exports and their value for the most recent year available.  Be sure to cite the source(s) of your information!

Find out who your country's major trading partners are, and list them either by value of (total) trade or by percent of total trade.  (Note:  "total trade" means imports plus exports.)  Be sure to cite the source(s) of your information!

Write an essay describing how and why your country protects trade.  Is your country a GATT member?  What tariff policies does your country have?  Are there nontariff barriers?  (I would suggest that this needs to be, at minimum, two pages in length to have any sort of adequate coverage of the topic.)   Be sure to cite the source(s) of your information!
