10. IDEOLOGI POLITIK EKONOMI Three major ideology according Gilpin in his book ‘The Political Economy of international Relations':

11. Must occur separation between economy and government intervention. To reduce bureaucracy and give plenty of freedom to traders and dealer. In the opinion of Liberalist : logic will determine market and with freedom, healthy competition will incur. Liberal

12. Efficiency and economic development can produces better life standard. Humans will always want best benefit by giving priority to cost reduction and maximize income. Finally, humans want equality among products and cost so that the people are pleased with the market.

13. Almost alike with the concepts of mercantalism, protectionism and statism. All economic activities are supervised by government or country. Intends to fulfill national interest. Gives priority to national interest, country's defense system, national security and development. Nationalist

14. Economy must be contributed to nation building. Extreme Nationalist thought says, “ international economy is the stage to extend the country’s mastery and the field to seek out maximum wealth for national treasury”. Wealth > power > national security

15. Discussion is focused to questions relating to production that can be felt by all layers in community. According to Marx (1818 1883), although man originally are rational and can use logic with balance in wealth accumulation and wealth distribution, eventually rational and logic would force humans to reap more profit to ensure their own future. Marxism

16. Associated with interclass competition concept (class struggle) and finally change the world to socialism concept (national property ownership and equal distribution of property). Marx 's views was further developed by Lenin (1870 1924). New Theories such as ‘Modern World system’ came into existence; dual concept namely ‘core and periphery’ and also dependency theory concept.

17. WORLD ECONOMY POLITICAL STRUCTURE Divided into 4 structures:

18. How products are issued and traded. International trading are bound by various regulations (GATT, WTO) Also discusses on who are the manufacturer and who are the users Production structure

19. Safety factor in economy politics especially during the Cold War (components of the world fell into two main block: support US support the Soviet Union/ Sosialis) Also means that the country can handle various threat in or out and give protection to other countries as well. Security structure

20. Discusses the cash flow (ways to get and ways to use) as a tool to get the resources in the world. Example: A country which takes up a loan from IMF is forced to follow and reshuffle their economy to suit IMF’s will. Financial structure

21. Emphasizes the importance of interest and use of knowledge. Nations that have the knowledge and technology will advance in comparison to those without either. Example: Japan, US, South Korea Knowledge & Technology Structure

22. Conclusion of Four Structures Altogether this perspective would be the elements to see tendency / level of cooperation framework of one country. Although they differ from one another , sometimes they are joined.

23. OPEC oil crisis 1970 Influenced by political crisis then: Arab-Israel war (end of 1940 ‘s). In 1973, war between Arab-Israel caused Arab (which is the main country in OPEC organization) to increase the world oil price This was to retaliate towards the Americans and British who supported Israel OPEC controls almost 85% world oil production

24. Price gambol 400% ( from $2.90 > $11.65) Crisis worsened with the fall of Iran 's Shah > Ayatollah Khomenei (gambol $34 one barrel, 1200%) This proves that economic activities are influenced by politic and vice versa

25. Multinational Corporation (MNCs) Important in world economic development Rich and can move around the whole world without restrictions MNCs readily acceptable (modal injection / factories construction MNCs is divided to various kinds: manufacturing (car), finance (banks, solicitor firm), technology (IBM, Microsoft). Has 2 or more branches in other countries

26. Developing countries make the effort to attract outside investors (foreign direct investment-FDI) because lack of capital and skill US also requires MNCs to move their economy. In the year 1980, 40% world FDI encroached US. However in 1990 ‘s, FDI distribution was stable in Cold War post era

27. Basically, FDI gives positive impact to the host country: gives revolving capital, job opportunities, new market, technology transfer weakness: MNCs will move to other country if the operation in the present country is more remunerative For example: when China open her door to world economy, many MNCs company moved there due to cheaper labour cost

28. Regional Economy Politics There are regional organizations which plays important roles in development of world political economy. Among them are: European Union, NAPHTHA and ASEAN Even though it gives emphasis to regional cooperation, could not get away from the occurrence of political consideration in decision / economy policy
