Objective

To understand what a free trade agreement is, what the USMCA is and which countries signed into. Also, to learn which countries are part of MERCOSUR and what they have agreed to.

Description

In this lesson you will learn that the economic growth is linked to democracy and the increased trade does not offset the negative impact in job creation. The trend of free trade in the region is meant to continue at the expense of jobs against China and Asian countries in general. It will be a permanent challenge to revert this with smart investments that can take into consideration local economies as well.
