In a world characterized by interconnectedness and dynamism, understanding the mechanisms of the global economy becomes essential for anyone who wishes to analyze and interpret contemporary economic realities. "Geography and World Economy: Practical Applications" is a specialized work primarily designed for students, but also for anyone interested in deepening their understanding of the fundamental concepts of the global economy and their implications for socio‑economic development.
The work includes a series of practical applications and is structured in a way that facilitates the understanding and application of essential concepts in the field of world economics. In the first part, the foundations of the global economy are analyzed, including the global market and its segments, mechanisms of international economic governance, and the role of global organizations. Emphasis is placed on the national economy as the main component of the world economy, differences between national economies based on their level of development, as well as the role of transnational corporations in shaping international economic flows.
Additionally, the book addresses major global challenges such as climate change, limited resources, and economic imbalances, highlighting their impact on sustainable development. Romania is analyzed within the context of the world economy, emphasizing its role and contributions to international economic processes.
To facilitate the learning process and knowledge assessment, the second part of the work includes review questions and multiple‑choice tests, providing a useful tool for students and anyone wishing to evaluate and deepen their understanding of the subject.
We hope that this work will serve as a valuable guide in the learning process and an inspiration for analyzing and interpreting global economic phenomena.
