Understanding the World Economy Global Issues Shaping the Future, by Tony Cleaver, Routledge, 1997. There is no single book that covers current economic issues on a global scale. Thus, we can not confine the course material to the books cited above.
Handouts are a major part of the reading assignments.
I plan to conduct the course in four dimensions as follows. Cover the basics of Economic Development. Discuss the basics of International Economics. Analyze selected current business and economic issues on a global scale within the context of parts 1 and 2. 4.Present selected national economic issues and relate them to part 3.
