How Italy's Trade Industry is Affected by Changes in Governmental Legislation and What This Change Does in Terms of International Relations
Analyze: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italy#Foreign_relations The article is most useful in listing the organizations that Italy is a part of as these organizations will aid immensely in understanding the mindset of the Italian government when making decisions involved with trade and international relations as a whole. What the article is weakest in would be lack of cultural identity. It explains the general thought process of the government by simply stating which organizations Italy has become involved in but lacks the view of the Italian people and thus lacks the possibility of a greater understanding of the Italian trade industry, specifically their goals as a people. The article includes some very brief history on significant events such as the deployment of 2,000 troops into Afghanistan to support the OEF, which is current and useful in terms of foreign relations, but does not delve into the meat of the Italian international relations topic but rather skims the surface. The article is both short and superficial in coverage but would be a good start to any foreign relations based research for Italy if subtopic was being thought over. The article in question, overall, lacks the perspective of Italy as it does not defend any foreign relations move on Italy's part nor does it generally explain each membership or decision.
