Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Briefly, neoliberalism involves the privatization of economic practices, increased levels of foreign investment, and decreased governmental regulation and state intervention. Neoliberalism has facilitated the increased presence of multinational corporationsitself a primary example of globalization. However, the benefits of neoliberalism have not been evenly distributed; many workers are exploited through low wages and poor working conditions. Also, lax environmental regulations have facilitated the export of pollution from North America, Europe, and East Asia.
