Answer:
National prosperity is created, not inherited. It does not grow out of a country’s natural endowments, its labor pool, its interest rates, or its currency’s value, as classical economics insists.
A nation’s competitiveness depends on the capacity of its industry to innovate and upgrade. Companies gain advantage against the world’s best competitors because of pressure and challenge. They benefit from having strong domestic rivals, aggressive home-based suppliers, and demanding local customers.
In a world of increasingly global competition, nations have become more, not less, important. As the basis of competition has shifted more and more to the creation and assimilation of knowledge, the role of the nation has grown. Competitive advantage is created and sustained through a highly localized process. Differences in national values, culture, economic structures, institutions, and histories all contribute to competitive success. There are striking differences in the patterns of competitiveness in every country; no nation can or will be competitive in every or even most industries. Ultimately, nations succeed in particular industries because their home environment is the most forward-looking, dynamic, and challenging.
These conclusions, the product of a four-year study of the patterns of competitive success in ten leading trading nations, contradict the conventional wisdom that guides the thinking of many companies and national governments—and that is pervasive today in the United States. (For more about the study, see the insert “Patterns of National Competitive Success.”) According to prevailing thinking, labor costs, interest rates, exchange rates, and economies of scale are the most potent determinants of competitiveness. In companies, the words of the day are merger, alliance, strategic partnerships, collaboration, and supranational globalization. Managers are pressing for more government support for particular industries. Among governments, there is a growing tendency to experiment with various policies intended to promote national competitiveness—from efforts to manage exchange rates to new measures to manage trade to policies to relax antitrust—which usually end up only under mining it. (See the insert “What Is National Competitiveness?”)

How are private property rights related to the system of capitalism?
Answer:
Private property promotes efficiency by giving the owner of resources an incentive to maximize its value. The more valuable a resource, the more trading power it provides the owner of the resource. This is because, in a capitalist system, someone who owns property is entitled to any value associated with the property.

Read this passage from a 1946 speech by Winston Churchill
It is my duty ... to place before you certain facts about the
present position in Europe. From Stettin in the Baltic to
Trieste in the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended
across the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of
the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe. Warsaw,
Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and
Sofia, all these famous cities and the populations around
them lie in what I must call the Soviet sphere, and all are
subject in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence
but to a very high and, in many cases, increasing measure
of control from Moscow.2
How did the ideas expressed in the passage influence the Cold War?
A. They established a clear border between Europe's communist and
noncommunist regions.
B. They were used to justify aggressive actions such as the Berlin
blockade
O C. They encouraged the United States and Soviet Union to increase
aid to their allies
D. They encouraged small countries to remain nonaligned in Cold
War conflicts
