economy, located in the Caribbean it has been globalized had have benefitted much

The title of this study is An investigation into the impact of globalization on
Jamaicas economy. Jamaica, home of over 2.4million people, is located in the
Caribbean after residing here for over 17 years the researcher have observed many
changes in its economy. Therefore the researcher has decided to conduct a small

globalization?

Jamaicas economy and the society as a whole?

This will be in my data collection: Using the phone book, the researcher
will randomly dial 1 person from every 20,000 etc \Can it work

Ill send the literature review if this topic can work..i dont think its too
broad since I dont think it would be very wise to use a specific small
town in Jamaica so yea..
