Analyzing the issues

Technology and travel have connected the world like never before, making it easier than ever to trade goods and culture across borders.

This book will introduce students to the debate surrounding free trade and globalization to help them understand the nature of international commerce, cultural exchanges brought on through trade, and how the international economy is evolving
