Answer:

The idea of restricting international trade, otherwise known as trade protectionism, is considered wrong because the world today is centered around globalisation.

Explanation:

Countries desire to increase revenue for their local governments. They impose trade barriers through the imposition of tariffs, embargos, voluntary export restraints and so on, with the aim of reducing competition from foreign industries so as to promote local companies. However, this usually produces adverse effects, heavier than the intended benefits. Such effects include reducing the wide variety of goods and services available to the population, reducing the number of jobs due to reduction in number of foreign companies, increasing monopoly power which will in turn lead to higher prices being charged by monopolists. Indirectly, restricting international trade also affects international relations.

Vygotsky believed that children build their knowledge base and skills through social interaction, and that the best education cr
anygoal [31]

His theory is called the Social constructivism.

According to this theory, the potential development varies according to the level at which the learning takes place. It is composed of cognitive structures that are in the process of maturation, but that can only be developed with the guidance and collaboration of third parties. Vygotsky was a cognitivist, but he disagreed with the assumption that learning was independent of the social context. He considered that all cognitive functions originate in social interactions and that learning not only ivolves the assimilation and adaptation of new knowledge by students. For Vygotsky it is a process in which the learners are integrated into a community of knowledge.
