How do national and international factors interact in empowering some states of the Global South to make more progress toward the UN Sustainable Development Goals than other states?<\/p>\n
I believe that the reason why some national and international factors interact in empowering some states more than other\u2019s because some states are at liberty to attempt to better themselves compared to those who are having political and military control issues.\u00a0 But even those who are struggling with horrific governmental control situations are still doing everything to better themselves as states.\u00a0 First and foremost, I would like to comment and say that I was very impressed at the podcasts that I was able to listen to.\u00a0 I truly enjoyed comparing their techniques and strategies to my own groups and was quite interested in their topics.\u00a0 I found these projects to be a quick and easy way to gain much new and essential knowledge in the realm of international relations.<\/p>\n
The first country that I would like to discuss to support my analysis is Algeria.\u00a0 Algeria is a perfect example of one of the countries in which their international and national factors empower it more than other states.\u00a0 Algeria was initially a colony and because of this nationally, one finds the problems to be that it is comprised of a weak democratic institution trapped under military control, terrorism, and an extremely slow state economy over reliant on the exportation of oil.\u00a0 Algeria has faced troubles with terrorist groups especially during the time of the Algerian civil war. Since then, terrorism has lightened.\u00a0 However, the fact that it is an international factor that causes many countries to rely on alliances and countries to support them.\u00a0 This is where interdependence, the concept that continues to be relevant in class shows up.\u00a0 To additionally intertwine another blog post I listened to what I found unfortunate when it came to Egypt\u2019s attempt to advance SGD 16, their conditions from what I gathered comparing the two based on the podcasts, seem to be more challenging. This is due to the more severely centralized dominant military government and chronic debt causes countries for it to be much more difficult to reach any goals. But since they have looked to the United States and Israel for help, their conditions have been more stable.\u00a0 Referring back to Algeria, in the face of internal and external military challenges the \u201cpower\u201d had made itself known to be the guardian of the state so that elections are more like selection which created corruption.\u00a0 Legitimacy in this country is derived not from elections but natural resources these means that there are few incentives for political accountability. When concerning national factors in its progress towards SDG\u2019s first one must consider that Algeria is a resource rich country its oil and natural gas reserves account for 93% product exports 19% GDP domestic consumption of oil and gas.\u00a0 Once other countries began to focus on domestic oil and fuel sources they were exporting less, and revenue dropped. \u00a0The young population with a positive and optimistic mentality towards change shows light at the end of the tunnel. Because of national adjustments such as the 2021 government action plan, Algeria\u2019s economy hopes that by better judgement with public spending, import reduction, a boosting non hydrocarbon exports will help aid in letting go of their dependence of their oil and gas industry.\u00a0 In this sense international trade and business is the driving fuel in their economic aspirations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
