Which of these explains how japanese prosperity affected women in japanese society?
a. women gained more independence.
c. women lost most of their independence, but retained a few domestic rights.
b. women lost their independence.
d. women were not affected by japanese prosperity.

I chose letter a. Women gained more independence. After 1947, women gained more rights such as to hold property, inherit estate, marry and divorce freely and vote.  However some practices remain even with the changes after the war.  It was only in recent years that there has been a shift to their favor.

trade regulation is a field of law, often bracketed with antitrust (as in the phrase “antitrust and trade regulation law”), including government regulation of unfair methods of competition and unfair or deceptive business acts or practices. antitrust law is often considered a subset of trade regulation law. franchise and distribution law, consumer protection law, and advertising law are sometimes considered parts of trade regulation law.

in general the theory of economics says that the more open to trade a country is the better   the result for the same country and the whole economies.

in real life countries impose taxes, quotas, etc which is not so good for the economies.

this kind of commercial war between the usa and china is slowing down the growth of the whole world so we can say that it is a draw back of trade regulations. and the free trade agreements are benefits of trade regulations.
