What is the condition of I am a student in Economics
Class and We have one week for
this project. We were given
different countries per
student and I got Austria. I
need to research on the
following:
What is its present political
and social conditions?
What is its history in terms
of politics, social conditions
and economics?
How are economic decisions
made?
How are economic problems
solved?
What kind of economic system
does Austria have? Support
through data.
Is there anyone here who is an
Austrian? Can I interview you?
It will be easier and even
more factual if I'll be able
to ask these to someone who is
an Austrian by citizenship.
Thank you for those who will
respond.

fragile agreement going on
