As the readings point out, the federal system was designed to give more local power to people living in their regions or states, since they know better what their needs are. Also, this system was designed not to put too much power in the hands of the federal government. Further readings go into more detail about whether our federal system works the way the designers or ‘founding fathers’ of the Constitution meant it to work. This question does tie into an earlier discussion of whether the United States has elitist or pluralist political features, or a combination of the two. So, those readings are good background material for the Case Study writing assignment…
In the Case Study assignment for Module 3, you will compare the United States to just one of four countries listed. It’s your choice as to which country you choose to compare to the United States. Do the readings that go with this assignment, and use the CIA World Factbook link to get a general descriiption of the type of government your country choice has. The assignment does mention using one additional scholarly source using the FSCJ Online Library. Please do that. (Note 1: The Central Intelligence Agency, or CIA, has its own prejudices on how it views other countries of the world, but the Factbook does provide fairly accurate descriiptions of the types of governments. You can also use other sources for descriiptions of these countries if you want to , for example, from the United Nations.)
Here are some tips to help you complete this assignment: Include an introduction at the beginning of your 5 page (double-spaced, 12 font) paper. It should be about a paragraph long and should mention which one of the four countries you have chosen to compare to the United States, and in which ways you’re going to compare them. Then, answer the five questions or items listed in the assignment. Separate your writing into paragraphs, devoting one or two paragraphs to each question being asked. Use our sources first to answer the five items and use more than one of our sources. You must cite your sources, in a quick way within your text (e.g. “Federalism as a Structure for Power, Lumen Learning”), and then cite the full correct source at the end of your essay, using APA style. Here is a useful link on how to cite sources within your text, for example, in the body of a paper or essay:
Put in your browser: https://guides.libraries.psu.edu/apaquickguide/overview (Links to an external site.)Go to ‘in text citations’. Then, to give the full citation of your sources in your bibliography at the end of a Discussion post, or at the end of an essay or final paper, go to ‘citing web pages and social media’, or ‘citing articles’ or ‘citing books’ etc. Summarize your findings in a concluding paragraph or two. What conclusions did you come to? What observations did you make after reading the material and after researching your subject?
Edit your work for grammar or spelling errors. Read over your paper at least two times to look for writing errors. (Note 2: Title pages and bibliography pages (pages listing your sources) do not count as text pages. Again, the Case Study assignment must be five, double-spaced, 12 font pages long of text.
(Note 3: Do not include graphics or listings of any kind. Just write sentences and paragraphs of text.)
(Note 4: Again, you are to choose only one country to compare to the United States. You will be researching the basic political systems of the U.S. and the other country. You will then compare whether the US and the other country are elitist in nature or pluralistic, democratic or autocratic, which can be done by looking at whether they encourage civic engagement, citizen protest and participation, or not.)

As governments and political leaders respond to economic and political changes, they create incentives for companies to do business within their market and restrictions for certain businesses that could be harmful to the domestic market. In this discussion, you will explore how these incentives and restrictions have influenced and can continue to influence trade and the impact of government interventions on business.
Using the resources from your required reading, address the following as part of your response:
Provide an example of government economic intervention designed to influence, regulate, or control trade for a specific industry from one of the articles and summarize the government’s reasons for the interventions.
Identify which parties and organizations were or will be impacted by the government intervention, including any impacts on the price of commodities.
Briefly summarize key pieces of information a business in the industry from your example needs to know to fully understand how the intervention will affect its business.
