Discussion
Watched the video's on Tracking Global Trends and the Emerging Middle Class as part of the class objectives. Consider the ideas and trends that are highlighted in these videos as well as those covered in your text this week then search the Internet for a current article that focuses on a recent trend in the global economy and do the following:
· Please provide a link to that original article for review.
· Write an original commentary of the article that is at least four paragraphs in length and provides the following:
· An explanation of the trend being illustrated in the article.
· Who and/or what is/will be impacted by this trend. (e.g. nations, industries, socioeconomic classes, etc.)
· What is the predicted future impact/outcome assuming that this trend continues to develop along its current path?
· Do you agree with the article and its predictions? Why or why not?
· Be sure to support your writing with references to your textbook, class readings, or at least one outside source in APA format (in-text citation and an accompanying reference list at the end of your post).
