Week #1 Readings

For Wednesday, May 20th, please read the following:

  • Friedman, Thomas. The World is Flat, Chapter 1 (pp. 1-47).
  • Angelique Haugerud, “Globalization and Thomas Friedman,” from Why America’s Top Pundits are Wrong.

Friday, May 22nd and Monday, May 25th – Memorial Day weekend (no class).

Please post a response to the readings (above) by Friday, May 22nd. Additionally, I encourage you to provide links to other sites (news stories, magazine articles, advertisements, etc.) that help us to better understand the readings (i.e. an example of a main point or argument made or something that contradicts or peripherally supports).

Next week’s readings will go up Friday, 22nd.
