Written by economists from the Asian Development Bank and the International Monetary Fund as well as journalists at Dow Jones, the Financial Times, the New York Times, Fortune, and Reuters--and with an introduction by Nobel Laureate Joseph E. Stiglitz--Covering Globalization is a guide to the pressing topics of our times and includes tips on how to write about subjects such as: banking and banking crises, pension reform, privatization, trade agreements, central banks, the World Bank, sovereign debt restructuring, commodity markets, corporate governance, poverty-eradication programs, the "resource curse". Each chapter explains the basic economic principles and current thinking on a given topic and has tips for reporters about what to look for when covering the subject as well as links for more information. The book also includes extensive glossaries and guidance on using the Internet for reporting and structuring business and economics stories.
