ECONOMIC CHALLENGES IN A GLOBALLY TRANSITIONAL ERA: CONTEMPORARY PERSPECTIVES

Abstract

This article derives its foundation from my conference keynote address. Specifically, the perspectives I have chosen align with images and realities drawn from the contemporary global economy, which I have synthesized into a comprehensive collection of the most significant contemporary economic challenges we encounter worldwide. The purpose of each of these movements is to serve as a vivid point of reference for those of us who are conscientiously striving to enhance academic clarity and reasoning. This endeavor becomes particularly vital in a world characterized by an excess of information, often riddled with contradictions, misinformation, and inaccuracies. Such circumstances frequently lead to substantial gaps in knowledge and, even more significantly, deficits in wisdom.
