## INT 220 Module Four Journal Guidelines and Rubric
### Overview
This journal assignment explores the actions and ethical considerations of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) during global financial crises. By examining a specific example, such as the IMF’s intervention in Greece’s debt crisis, you will reflect on when economic bailouts are justified, who should provide them, and the ethical implications of financial assistance with strict conditions. This reflection will help you better understand how international financial organizations influence global economic stability and decision making during crises.
### Directions
The IMF has faced both support and criticism for its role in stabilizing global economies during financial crises. To help frame your journal reflection, consider the IMF’s involvement during Greece’s economic crisis beginning in 2009, when Greece required multiple bailouts after facing severe debt issues. The IMF provided financial assistance but attached strict requirements that sparked debate about the effectiveness and fairness of such interventions.
In this journal assignment, you will explore a specific IMF intervention and analyze its impact.
Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:
– **IMF Intervention:** Provide a clear example of an IMF intervention in a global financial crisis. Summarize the IMF’s actions and the rationale for its involvement.
– **Ethical Considerations**: Discuss the ethical implications of the IMF’s intervention, including whether the conditions attached to financial assistance were justified.
– **Lessons Learned**: Summarize key lessons from the IMF’s involvement in the selected crisis and discuss how they apply to future economic bailouts.
### What to Submit
Submit this assignment as a 2- to 3-paragraph Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Cite any sources used in APA format.
