It is correct to say that President Ronald Reagan and British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher implemented a conservative economic policy based on the privatization of state-owned industries and policies based on deregulation, modest tax rates, and limited government spending.

Both government leaders thought the government had controlled the economy for many years and this had produced bad economic results. They thought that the government was not able to own so many enterprises and had to deregulate and privatize the economy. And privatize they did. They privatize the nationalized industries and controlled workers' unions.

Thatcher and Reagan affected the globalization of business in that they supported excessive private investment in companies and allowed the development of new foreign trade agreements such as the GATT.
