America and the New Global Economy

De: Timothy Taylor, The Great Courses

Narrado por: Timothy Taylor

Globalization continues to be a force in our economic climate. And the origins of this globalized economy, its effects on important contemporary concerns, and its future trends are just a few of the intriguing issues you explore in these 36 lectures. Go beyond the economy of the United States and examine the recent history of economies in other countries and regions. As you journey with Professor Taylor through the last 50 years of world economic history, you'll explore international perspectives on the new global economy and develop a richer understanding of our increasingly interconnected world.

To get a comprehensive picture of the new global economy, you consider the individual economies of countries including China (which may be the world's largest economy through much of the 21st century), India (the accelerated growth of which is based in service industries), and the Middle East (where most economies are surprisingly quite small). You'll also focus on a range of economic issues that have important ramifications for everyone, such as labor laws, population growth, and international economic agencies such as the World Bank and the World Trade Organization.

Taken together, these lectures are a comprehensive look at economic globalization you can't get from reading the business section of a newspaper. They're your opportunity to grasp the economic histories, issues, and trends that affect us. With the knowledge gained from these lectures, you're able to understand the latest developments in our global economy and better prepare for a future in which all our economies will be linked.

Greatest economics lecturer ever

Kind of strange to say that an economics professor is entertaining but this is how I would describe him.

informative and bright

good content and the author is likeable. I would recommend it. A newer version talking about the current global economy and the future of business after Covid 19 would be appreciated. Thank you for making this available using the Audiobooks credit.

ok very perfect I enj it very much. lol hahaha

very good lecture lol. what y think? good or soso? ofcourse. !!!!? lol@ John tough

Realist, founded in science and historical observation

I am a highly educated very successful independent business person. Nowhere have I found such an organized mural of the world economy. A political, rational and very much free market. Well done Timothy Taylor.

this was recorded in 2008, I believe

his analysis is very informed and nuanced. I worry the field has changes enormously since
