Hi all, I'm working on undergraduate syllabi for the Fall and would like to update a few readings. I'm hoping for suggestions of some strong, accessible pieces of the type one might find in, say, Harper's Magazine or the New York Review of Books. Well-written articles meant for an academic audience would also be great.
I am looking particularly for pieces that will help students understand: 1. The nature of the global economy, links between the workings of the economy and the global environmental condition, and "the economy" as a site and/or mechanism of governance in response to environmental challenges. 2. Links between science and policy, ideally shedding some light on current debates about the creation of scientific knowledge and how it might be (or not be) translated into policy responses. Thanks for any and all suggestions. Please respond to me at [email protected], and I'll compile a summary for the list. Best wishes, Simon Simon Nicholson, Ph.D. Assistant Professor School of International Service American University 4400 Massachusetts Avenue, NW Washington DC 20016 Phone: +1-202-885-1614 E-mail: [email protected] www.american.edu/sis/faculty/snichols.cfm _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail is redefining busy with tools for the New Busy.
