Selection Criteria
You must write a 750-1,000 word essay on subject "The future of Internet Retail"

Until recently globalization only affected manufacturers in industrialized countries such as Australia Canada, England, Germany and the USA. With cheaper labor and less regulations in emerging economies, manufacturers in industrialized countries were forced to either shut down or move their manufacturing plants to countries that offered them the advantages of cheap labor and less regulations.

Today the Internet gives consumers access to products from around the world, putting retailers in a position of shuttering their brick and mortar locations. In a concise essay answer these questions. Write an essay on your theory of the future of Internet Retailing encompassing these 4 points of discussion.

1. How will continued retail sales via the internet affect established retailers.
2. Does Internet Shopping produce more competition or less? Why?
3. Will Internet retail giants get traditional retailers to become extinct, or will their growth cause more opportunities for niche retailers?
4. Explore the effects giant internet retail monopolies will have on consumer prices and how it will affect local and regional economies.
