New lectures include assessing the economic impact of war in the Gulf, in particular looking at (and discussing) the economic concepts contained in freely available articles online. As always, emphasis is placed on discussion - the more you post in the Q/A, the more you will learn. remember ; there are students on this course from many different countries - they are likely to have anecdotal knowledge that will not be in textbooks or even online newspapers. Take advantage of this opportunity!

Learn from each other.

Update:

Now including a brand new collection of Case Studies that examine the economic policies of President Trump following his election on November 6th 2024. These look in particular at:

· Tariffs

· China’s growth

· World Economy

· Tax cuts

· Exporters

· Impact on seniors

· Exchange rate

This course is pitched at students who have not formally studied Economics but would like to learn more through assimilating it i.e. not actually studying but just 'picking it up as they go along'. If that is you then this Economics course is ideal!

That is because:

1. The lectures are very very current

2. Assume no prior Economics knowledge

3. Encourage you - the student - to post in discussions

4. Some homework is set (for discussion)
