TTC - America and the New Global Economy
(36 lectures, 30 minutes/lecture)
Course No. 5620

Taught by Timothy Taylor
Macalester College
M.Econ., Stanford University

Look back at the global economy in 1950 and you'll find these conditions: The shock of a great depression, two world wars, and restrictions on immigration had led to little economic interconnectedness between countries.

These are just some of the many dramatic changes that are underway as globalization—the process of the world's diverse countries coming together and sharing experiences, events, and trade—continues to be a force in our economic climate.

BBC R4 - Lost Worlds by Michael BywaterBBC R4 - Lost Worlds by Michael Bywater

This book is an A-Z of things we have lost, designed to dip in and out of. I was first attracted to it purely because Stephen Fry was complimentary about it, as displayed in a large quotation on the cover, but I'm glad I picked it up. The general concepts is that we're continually losing things, so Michael Bywater decided to compile a list of things we've lost.
