About this badge

Examine the critical issues facing global affairs from a political-economic context. Explore the current issues of our changing world, accelerated by the interdependence upon, and conflicts caused by, globalization. Discuss the vanishing “North-South” dynamics of the post-World War II economic order. Also, examine the impact that trade protectionism and resource geopolitics have on new global governance and on nations’ ability to address crises in finance, energy, climate change, population growth, health, economic disparities, and terrorism. Other topics include the basics of international markets for goods and services, labor, finance, knowledge, and technology, as well as the roles in international relations of multinational enterprises, banks, NGOs, governments, and multilateral institutions.
