Examine the international trade relationships of all countries in terms of the overall volumes of exports and imports, their overall balance of trade, the direction of trade (with what other countries they trade), and the composition of trade.
Moreover, the characteristics of a country’s trade patterns are typically associated with its level of development, with non-oil-exporting less developed countries often specializing in low-skill, labor-intensive, undifferentiated, price-sensitive commodities. The opposite is true of developed countries, which tend to engage heavily in intra-industry trade and whose trend patterns tend to be less concentrated by sector.
In this exercise, you will examine a variety of trade indicators for your chosen country in order to briefly evaluate whether the country’s trade patterns are consistent with those of a Developing Country and whether they are becoming more or less so over time.

- service exports, 2015-19
- service imports, 2015-19
- balance of trade in services, 2015-19 (last three should be on the same graph)

Provide graphical presentations of each of these indicators, taking note of the instruction above about which ones should be on the same graph. Be sure to label the figures and the axes clearly and include the source of your data immediately below each figure (I know that the data are all from the same source, but this is an opportunity to reinforce good habits). Follow the graphical presentations with a narrative of no more than three paragraphs addressing the issue mentioned above.

Write a post in which you clearly and succinctly explain the differences between the two.
Moral theories generally fall into one of two main types or categories:
- Consequentialism
- Non-consequentialism
Write a post in which you clearly and succinctly explain the differences between the two. Quote from Vaughn to back up your claims.
Note: Vaughn uses this chapter to identify the two main “families” of ethical theory, consequentialist and non-consequentialist. In the chapters that follow, he goes on to describe specific examples of each type.
Alternatives to the above: The diagram above represents the key differences between consequentialist and non-consequentialist moral theories. Create your own graphic to represent the differences between the two “families” of theories (I shall call them, using the following shorthand abbreviations, as “C-Theories” and Non-C-Theories”). This graphic might be a cluster diagram, a table, or a visual illustration of some kind. You can be imaginative as you like, as long as your graphical representation is both clear and accurate.
