Gauging Interest-A Modern Day Nes

Yeah, I pretty intentionally did not link to NYT, BBC, NPR, the Guardian or other obvious, easy-to-find sources. SWJ is good, though, as is the specific At War blog -- thanks for the recommendations.

edit: I added SWJ, the NYT At War Blog, and Google Alerts to the list. :)
 
I don't see the point in linking to a source we both know is awful? *shrug*

I'll think of more sources presently. I have a bunch at work.

Removed; while I had believed they were good about security news alerts in a timely fashion (it's not like I enjoyed their original content or anything), Google Alerts is much more efficient. And I shamefully was not aware of Google Alerts. This is incredibly useful. I'm still operating on 2G, I guess. Gotta get with the times.

I'm hoping you can maybe provide some more econ sources.
 
1. Israel !!! Should get it considering I am Israeli :p
2. Iran
3. North Korea
4. maybe Russia
5. Brazil

Additional points.

Don't use the WB, IMF's WEO is vastly more user friendly.

The FT is paywalled 4 lame, the Economist is as well, but in a vastly less sucky manner. Both of the are awful hack jobs anyways, but w/e. Baynan (Economist asia blag) is alright. Does a reasonable growth story, I suppose.

Try and get a copy of Dani Rodrik's The Globalization Paradox. It should be in most (decent) uni libraries.

Usual plug for Power and Plenty here.

Textbooks are much of a muchness. I teach out of E6 of this. Mankiw's work is usually taken to be the best in the US market. Dunno if that extends to his macroeconomics but w/e. There's naff all difference between textbook treatments of economics.

I can make more recommendations as required. Generalist/easy reading stuff isn't my strength.
 
we read Mankiw's macro economics book for PGDM course.
that yellow colored bible ... :o
 
textbook 'nough said.

I am so curious why there's all this love for North Korea when you have perfectly good Venezuela, Ukraine, Egypt, and Thailand with no suitors :(

So apparently my Tier System didn't portray what I wanted it to portray, where I wanted to guide people to various nations at their skill level. I have already confirmed several players, so check the front page if you want to see the gist, and feel free to change your mind about stuff. Please keep in mind that unless I have played multiple neses with you, talk to you, know you know your stuff, I will NOT grant you a Tier I power.

Easy Mode-These are countries that many could play, and due to either their relatively small role in International politics, their internal stability, or their large economy, are not too difficult to play

Argentina
Australia
Canada
Italy
Japan
Poland

Moderate-These are countries that either have a larger role in international politics, and will thus take more effort and skill, but they still are relatively stable and have a solid economy to fall back on, or countries who may not have the most developed economies, but are well on track to becoming a major player in the world if ran properly

Brazil
France
Germany
Indonesia
Nigeria
Saudi Arabia
South Africa
South Korea
Taiwan
Thailand
Turkey
Ukraine
Venezuela
Vietnam

Difficult-Each of these nations has some sort of issue. Perhaps a difficult foreign policy situation, internal instability, or growing an economy, each of these nations will offer a refreshing challenge.

Egypt
Iran
Israel
Pakistan
The Philippines


Hahaha. Ahahaha. Hahahahahah. Hahahahhahahaha. Oh God. Good Luck.

Mexico
North Korea
Swaziland
 
New List:

1. Germany
2. Australia
3. Egypt
4. Poland
5. South Korea
