what are the two reasons for placing an embargo on a foreign nations goods?

Answer 1

1. If we don't like them.
2. Contaminated goods.

Answer 2

sounds like homework to me

Off hand, I'd suggest the following:


1. the goods are dangerous for some reason

2. the nation in question is producing the goods [or all goods] by/after violating the fundamental rights of others {Example: a nation that practiced slavery and tried to sell the output of slaves might be embargoed.}

Answer 3

1. if that nations goods are defective or tainted by contaimination/ poor workmanship/ poor production etc..

2. if proper practices in employment/ treatment of workers--- ie. pay level giving society norms, health coverage for workers, retirement rights etc..--- have been violated to produce the product cheaply.

Answer 4

It is a peaceful alternative war to demonstrate an opposition to a nation's policy. It worked well in terms of S. Africa and apartheid but did not work in Cuba.

Answer 5

dangerous goods and the policies of the government of that country

Answer 6

Fair pricing, and balance of trade
