Between the World and the Street: Globalization’s Quiet Impact on India’s Small Businesses
Since 1947, India has followed a mixed economy, where economic activity is carried out by both the public and private sectors. In 1991, India was formally introduced to globalization policies. Globalization is often understood as the integration of the world economy. It views the entire planet as a single system, especially for decision-making and business activities. The idea of globalization is highly nuanced. Some see it as a new era of consumer choice and economic opportu

The Psychology of Giving: Why We Help (or Don’t)
Traditional economics assumes individuals act rationally to maximise utility. However, when it comes to giving, human behaviour often departs from this assumption. The psychology of giving helps explain why individuals, businesses, and investors support certain causes highlighting the importance of information and perceived outcomes. One key psychological factor is emotion. People are more likely to give when they feel a personal connection to a cause, such as helping an iden

The Economics of Doing Good
For countless decades, economics treated morality as a side issue. Profit was profit, charity was charity, and the two rarely overlapped. Today, that boundary is dissolving. A new economic logic is emerging where developing a new strategy in order to be financially stable isn’t just a smart decision but a way of living. This shift isn’t about replacing capitalism with altruism. It’s about rethinking incentives, value creation, and how greater impact fits into markets. Across

The Countryside as an Engine for Argentina's Future.
Argentina has been fighting for the way to end the string of economic crises, characterized by record-high inflation, poverty and unemployment numbers and percentages, and start on a path of economic recovery, growth and development, where stability is the norm and not uncertainty and fear. But, to achieve growth a country must trade with the world, exchange goods with other countries and regions. And for that, Argentina must have what to offer to the worldwide market. And wh

The Indirect Division of Germany
The German political system is divided its people between left and right. This has gotten so far that there is barely to no middle in political expression anymore. A disagreement wich seems harmless at first but turns out to be much more of a problem than anyone has expected. Since there is no middle ,the left and right party are getting more extreme by the day, so far that the tension in the daily life are high especially in schools or other teen facilities. These can escala

On the Canadian Budget of 2025
In Canada, a national budget is passed every year to control the federal government’s spending for the next fiscal year. Since the budget covers spending for the next fiscal year, it is normally announced before the budgeting year starts (which is from April 1st to March 31st in Canada), though, due to Mark Carney being sworn in only a few weeks prior as Prime Minister of Canada, the development of a new budget was pushed to later in the year. Historically, budgets have had a

The economic and social consequences of corruption: The South American case.
When we think about corruption, we tend to see it as just an issue of morality and compliance with the law, about a politician taking advantage of his position in the structures of government to get more personal wealth, stealing from the people they are meant to serve and represent and, in the case of democratic countries, got them to power through the popular vote in the first place. But corruption isn´t just about the law or politics, it also affects our daily lives in a n

Class Mobility: The Case of Argentina and how it should shape policy
Social Classes, as we currently know them, appear with the Industrial Revolution and the capitalist economic model.

How Social Media Shapes Modern Activism
Scroll long enough on Instagram or Tiktok, and you’ll stumble into a mini-protest; a stitched video calling out injustice, or a trending hashtag fighting for attention between memes and matcha cookie recipes. Activism today is very different from 30 years ago, it doesn’t start with a march or revolution but with a swipe, post or comment. Social media hasn’t just changed how we communicate; but rewired how we fight for change. Depending on who you ask, it’s either the greates

Gucci: A Century of Reinventionand Style
Gucci’s story reads like a mixtape that somehow blends old-school elegance with relentless reinvention — a brand that’s been strutting through the fashion world for over a century without losing its spark. Founded in 1921 by Guccio Gucci in Florence, the company began not with glittering runways but with leather goods inspired by the refined travelers Guccio observed while working in London hotels. He took that vibe — the polished luggage, the effortless class — and brought i

The Nutrien Shutdown in Trinidad and Tobago
Nutrien, a global giant in nitrogen fertilisers, announced its controlled shutdown of operations in the Republic of Trinidad in October of 2025. This has led to the unemployment of approximately 600 workers within the country.
