The analysis shows that although both the U.S. And Japan remain at the forefront of these respective categories among the countries of the world, the U.S. still leads Japan across the board but both countries have experienced moderate downturns in all key metrics since 1995 except in terms of innovation. According to Karoly and Panis (2004), the economies of the United States and Japan are expected to continue to be in the forefront of new technological developments and their applications in markets for products and services.

e) Political systems and international relations The political systems raise complexities through distinctive legislations. While the political systems in the U.S. might militate for a specific business feature, foreign political system might militate for a different business feature. The complexities include the need to spend increased funds to research and comply with the laws of the political systems across the globe.

Starbucks' code of ethics applies to its entire operations, including its partners, irrespective of local laws, which of course are also adhered to. Political systems have had some impact on Starbucks, compelling them to joint ventures and partnerships rather than greenfield investments.
