Students of Contemporary Issues have so far considered Global Warming, Peak Oil, Sports Issues, Health Issues and War. Come Thursday, October 22, our topic will be The Economic Crisis Today.
Some smaller issues within this topic include:
Alan Greenspan: Who is he? What did he do?
Derivatives: What are they? What effect have they had on the economic crisis?
Goldman Sachs: How is this company so successful, in spite of the crisis?
Is Taiwan recovering well from the crisis? What can we expect for 2010?
How did American mortgages affect the world economic crisis?
China in these troubled times: big winner?
What is the world reserve currency and how is it likely to change?
What stocks are doing well today? Which are doing poorly?
What is hyper-inflation? What is deflation? Which is more likely to occur in 2010?
What is happening in the automobile industry?
OR, choose your own subject. Please prepare a 5-10 minute report. Don't read an essay -- tell us in your own words about the ideas you have studied.
