Step-by-step solution

Each step shows the marks it earns, as an examiner would award them. Checked by an independent re-solve from the question paper.

  1. Technology: advances in transport, telecom and the Internet let goods, services and information move quickly and cheaply across countries, so distance matters less.

    1 mark

  2. Liberalisation: removing trade barriers (taxes, quotas) and allowing foreign investment makes it easier for firms to trade and produce abroad, for example through MNCs.

    1 mark

  3. Evaluation: acting together they link markets, raise trade and investment, and make countries more interdependent. Technology makes globalisation possible and liberalisation allows it, so each speeds up the other.

    1 mark

Answer: Technology makes fast movement across borders possible and liberalisation removes barriers to it, so together they integrate markets and accelerate globalisation.

Where the marks are

  • Role of technology in speeding movement of goods, services and information (1 mark)
  • Role of liberalisation in removing barriers and allowing investment (1 mark)
  • Combined effect: integration of markets and interdependence (1 mark)
