Designed to be used in courses like World Regional Geography, Introduction to the Modern World, 20th Century History, 21st Century Happenings, Global Politics, and/or Global Literacy, The Plaid Avenger's World essentially 'catches up' our woefully internationally-clueless students to the who/what/when/where/why arena of global events...in essence, to give them a framework of understanding into the critical and complex issues of our time that are now occurring in a global context. Completely updated and written in a refreshing, entertaining first person narrative, The Plaid Avenger's World: - Includes access to plaidavenger.com - a constantly updated site with world leaders profiles, on-line versions of The Plaid Avenger's comic book adventures, weekly podcasts on events pulled from the headlines of the news, and an increasing number of full regional/global topic lectures from the professor himself. - Discusses how global economy, demographics, politics, levels of development, conflicts, and international institutions shape the events of our lives. - Incorporates a new Cover Story vignette which is an entire chapter dedicated to the current events issues depicted on the textbook cover. - Is available as a Moodle course package that includes maps and graphics from the book for download, as well as extensive question pools for each chapter.
