by Geoff Riley

There is a hefty EEAG Report on the European Economy 2008 published this week and available to download here as a pdf file. Lots of really up to date charts and tables on growth, inflation, jobs, real wages, trade patterns etc within the global economy that teachers might want to draw from the report and use in teaching international economics. Chapter 3 looks especially relevant to a discussion on the economic impact of globalisation on jobs and real wages. The (broadly favourable) analysis offers six reasons why globalisation is good for jobs in advanced economies.
