Abstract
This paper is a discussion of the political and economic dilemmas of global interdependence. It is a discussion of the dilemmas caused by the interference of political and economic principles with the US vision for liberalization and integration of the global economy, from the perspective of United States policy makers and its relations with the European Union and Asia. The focus is on the differences in political and economic ideology which create difficulties as the major economies around the world become more interdependent. Complications arise in attempting to find policies which are acceptable to all involved. Not only do political and economic ideologies differ from country to country, but within these countries as well. In essence, this interdependent global economy is a work in progress. However, despite this constant change, the degree to which the global economy unites can be influenced. Success will be dependent upon the flexibility of individual countries in dealing with each other as well as their willingness to yield to the ideology of community--in exchange for the economic and political benefits which will surely result from interdependence.
