Worldmark Global Business and Economy Issues is intended for students in International Baccalaureate (IB) and AP courses. It follows closely the IB syllabus outlines for business management and economics.
The editor’s note states, “Business management and economics are two related subjects in the IB academic area ‘Individuals and Societies,’ which also includes geography, global politics, history, information technology in a global society, philosophy, psychology, social and cultural anthropology, and world religions. Together these subjects help explain the experience and behavior of people, the environments in which they live, and their histories.”
