Assignment:
Earlier this week, the US Senate passed a bill to boost and support microchip manufacturing again within the borders of the United States. The opening sentence of the White House statement on the topic reads like this: "Today, the House passed a bill that will make cars cheaper, appliances cheaper, and computers cheaper." Surprisingly, making these exact products cheaper - among many others - was the one key reason why the microchip industry gradually left the United States towards Taiwan, China, and South Korea many years ago when globalization was continuously on the rise.
Discuss this topic taking into consideration what we have learned throughout our course. Why do you think this happened? How does this correlate to global supply chain management, government influence on trade, and international business strategy?
The assignment will be graded on the quality of reflection, discussion, insights and how you make correlation(s) to course topics.
The body of the essay must not be longer than three pages. It should be typed in an 11-point font with 1.5 line spacing. In addition to that, add a cover page with your name, student number and of course the title of the essay! Make sure to cite any references that you use. Reference pages do not add to page count.
