Idea
Outsourcing falls under the issue of economical issues when addressed from the state perspective. It’s obviously undeniable that the issue of outsourcing also effect other regions such public image of a nation, national relations of the states, and general moral of the state as a whole. An obvious example is the close relationship between the United States and China as a result of the large amount of money invested by many American cooperation. US Policy Considerations – China, Taiwan, and the Pacific Rim by Rebecca Jimerson, Lawrence Cooper , and Corinne Contant at the George Washington University does a great job identifying the dual threat of China.
Action
One of the most effective actions that can be taken by nation to prevent or stimulate trends of outsourcing is to impose sanctions. Sanction will allow the nation to control the amount of product that is imported and exported based on the amount of taxes and tariffs. However, the effects of sanctioning have to be weight especially carefully. The relations of state A with state B very fragile and sensitive when discussing altering the effectiveness of the other nations economy. If major companies in state A though it be cost-effective, and lucrative to export their production site, and telecommunication to foreign countries such as state B. The reaction of state B would be to seek out those major investors expand their opportunity to invest money in their nation due to the positive effect the new investment has toward state B rising economy.
A real life example is the amount of many outsourcing industries are over sees currently in America. The new and modernized economy of the America is globalized and extends its reach beyond just their allies. The reference to allies is a direct indication that China one of the largest , if not the larges trading of the America does not uphold the human rights, and freedom of speech –that characterize the two top moral values of America.
A Diffrent Aspect-
Outsourcing might be a positive for a benefit for the America industry that is maximizing the amounted of production while decreasing their cost, but is it worth it for the China. The economical leaps made by China due to foreign investment can not be ignored, however does China want to be become the working backwater of the world. The effect of pollution will eventfully become a concern when it reaches the point where living conditions catch up to the world such as America. What will the reaction of China be to outsourcing of American jobs when they realize the fact that America is actually taking advantage of their poor living conditions? It might not make be apparent but the cost of outsourcing is not taken by American’s as a result of the benefits for the nature of the state, but cost. The economist would see nothing besides the $$$, however how long will America be able to afford to outsource their work and still be able to a healthy amount of money back into the economy.
Is America run dry out their economy due the industries large amount of outsourcing? My personally opinion is that America will be forced to either reconsider their tactics of monitoring the economy. Or the onset of World War III will help America either relapse into the WWII economical power it used to be or fall like England into the pit of an old legacy that surpassed their prime.
