This is the leading text for students undertaking the NSW Year 12 Economics course. It is fully aligned to the current Year 12 syllabus. The 2020 text has been completely revised to reflect the latest developments in Australia and the global economy relevant to Year 12 students. It guides students through an understanding of the key features of the economy in 2020, including the backlash against globalisation and the era of the Trump Presidency in the United States, the widening differences in the economic policy debate, Australia's economic performance in the decade since the global financial crisis, Australia's energy policy debate and the era of historically low inflation and wage growth. It includes updated graphs, end-of-chapter summaries and review questions, and revised case studies of the economies of Brazil and Indonesia.
