Your task is to write a position paper based on the following scenarios. Both parts relate to our area of study and how economics impacts our decisions on the local, national, and world levels. Please make sure to include some sort of statement agreeing or disagreeing with the public works projects. Make sure you include something about the role of government in these projects.
Part 1:
Improvements in transportation can bring economic
changes. How did the Grand Canal bring
economic change to China? Why did the
public works program anger the Chinese people?
Do you think the work was justified?
Part 2:
How does this compare to public works projects in Chicago or
anywhere else in the world today? How would the Three Gorges Dam bring economic
change to China? Are these projects
beneficial for the cost? Who should pay
for these projects?
