Also compare Thailand with Iceland's story.
I have a simple homework assignment for you to do for Friday. It will be trivially easy for some of you, but it is worth doing so that you have a greater appreciation of the stories we are reading about. Get the map of the world from the handouts section on Jenzabar (this link will only work if you are already signed into Jenzabar), print it out, and find and label:
Mexico, Argentina, Japan, China, Thailand, Indonesia, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Australia, Britain, England, Ireland, France, Soviet Union, Russia, Latin America, Brazil, S.E. Asia, and Chile. You’ll have to draw in some lines on your own for some of them and if it is easier to define a location verbally rather than with the map, that is just fine. Don’t quibble about the perfect definition of regions like Latin America and S.E. Asia; I’m just looking for a general sense of where these places are.
This assignment helps illustrate things like the oddity of international investors mixing up Mexico and Argentina, but not Mexico and Spain.
