Current read.
This is what I am currently unto for those of you who asked.
This book deals with economics at the global level and dicusses issues pertaining to globalisation, capitalism, international finance and the likes; basically mega issues that shape our world. Given the gravitas of issues being discussed, this book presents information that is very digestible. Therefore, I highly recommend it, given that it's written from a factual yet philosophical standpoint as oppose to it being technical or academic. Truly, a pleasant read.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have always enjoyed the interplay of politics and economics, and how these two disciplines form the bedrock of the world we live in. In fact, in the modern world political decisions often concern economic matters, and government decisions are often influenced by economic events.
These two disciplines are personal areas of interests, and I might pursue it at a deeper level with a masters in International Political Economy in the not too distant future.
Me in 'dreamer' mode:
Had i aced my A levels, I would surely have opted to do PPE at Oxford. (For the uninitiated; PPE is the acronym for Philosophy, Politics and Economics - an undergraduate level course offered at the esteemed Oxford which first established the course).
Nonetheless, I am happy to have had the opportunity to read International Political Economy at the the LSE last summer; the closest I got to reading (studying) my dream disciplines.
