What are the benefits and risks of interdependence? Provide examples and evidence to explain two benefits and two risks of inter
Tems11 [23]

<span><span>Benefits of interdependence include how developing countries can benefit from jobs provided by international companies, and trade. Developing countries benefit from jobs provided by international companies that produce a lot of goods, because that means more opportunities to make money. Families in poverty often rely on jobs provided by retailers for clothes, jewelry, or toys from western companies.  Unfortunately, a risk of interdependence lies in that many companies take advantage of the high demand for jobs, and abuse their power to help themselves. </span><span>Interdependence allows western economies to take advantage of developing countries with weaker economies. Western capitalist businesses often send jobs away to other countries where companies pay their workers a lot less, which makes it cheaper to get goods (like clothes and toys) produced. This side of interdependence is dangerous because it can violate human rights. When a family in poverty lives in an area that allows child labor, they sometimes have no choice but to put their child to work in order to afford food and other necessities.  Also, that family may feel encouraged to have more kids to bring in more money, and that contributes to overpopulation. International organizations have pressured countries with child labor to make laws against it, but those laws are often ignored. Countries like India have made an effort to protect children, but some are still forced to work to help support their families.</span></span>

<span>Another risk of interdependence can be expressed through a dilemma in many countries in Africa: the decision to either produce crops for food or for profit. African governments, influenced by multinational corporations, worked to increase the production of cash crops. Cash crops help to grow the economy, but take up large portions of land that would instead be used for food, which forces some countries to import expensive food to feed their growing population. Another issue surrounding cash crops: if the weather is particularly bad for a season, whether due to droughts or bad storms, the country suffers greatly. When a country depends heavily on one commodity to attract trade and bring in profit, and there becomes a shortage of that crop, that does not bode well for the economy of that country. <span> However, there are still countries and areas that benefit from interdependence due to trade. </span>An example of a beneficial relationship between countries due to interdependence and trade lies in African countries like Nigeria, where rising oil prices due to high demands benefits the economy. When countries trade natural resources, like oil, found in their geographical location, it has a positive effect on their economy. Trading with Asian industrial giants such as China and India also has a positive effect on economies in Africa. Countries in similar economic and geographical positions also profit from the oil trade in addition to minerals and other commodities. The growth that nations in Africa are experiencing attracts outside investments that are helpful when building a strong, successful infrastructure. </span>

During world war 2 the us government sent people of Japanese ancestry to internment camps based on
Allisa [31]

Based on prejudice against the Japanese and on fear that Japanese Americans would provide information or support to Japan in the war.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to <em>History Matters </em>from George Mason University:

  • <em>First attention was given to the problems of sabotage and espionage. ... At  San Francisco, for example, convoys were being made up within sight of possible Axis agents. There were more Japanese in Los Angeles than in any other area. In nearby San Pedro, houses and hotels, occupied almost exclusively by Japanese, were within a stone’s throw of a naval air base, shipyards, oil wells. Japanese fishermen had every opportunity to watch the movement of our ships. Japanese farmers were living close to vital aircraft plants. So, as a first step, all Japanese were required to move from critical areas such as these.</em>

Mostly, though, the Japanese Americans were forced into internment camps as a result of anti-Japanese prejudice and fear. Suspicious of anyone of Japanese heritage, the government restricted the civil liberties of Japanese Americans.  In February, 1942, President Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066, which allowed the Secretary of War to designate certain areas as military zones.  FDR's executive order set the stage for the relocation of Japanese-ancestry persons to internment camps.  By June of 1942, over 100,000 Japanese Americans were sent to such internment camps.
