Question: Imagine that you are a research assistant for the Director of Research at the International Labor Organization (the ILO), an agency that brings together governments, employers and worker represents from over 180 different member states of the United Nations. The ILO is interested in how globalization impacts national governments' ability to provide generous social/healthcare policies and good job opportunities to their countries' residents. You have been asked to explore this issue through a paired comparison of a social market economy (Germany) and the experience of a developing economy (Nigeria). More specifically, the Director asks you to characterize how the intersection of globalization and domestic politics has influenced the type of development challenges faced by each country (historically0) and how each country has sought to deal with these challenges in the contemporary era. In your report, you will draw on both assigned course readings, country-specific sources, and additional research to identify the key economic and political dilemmas facing each country as well as the types of policies that have been implemented to foster greater economic and social development in each country. You will also want to analyze the degree of success each country has had in fostering social and economic benefits for the majority of their population.
