The history and impact of the new global economy are made clear--andcompelling--in Commanding Heights: The Battle for the World Economy.This three-part, six-hour documentary does an astonishingly thoroughjob of dissecting and explaining macroeconomics and their currentpolitical and social importance without ever causing a loss ofconsciousness for the viewer.
Part 1, The Battle of Ideas, chronicles the history of economic thoughtfrom the start of the 20th century and its socialist reforms rightthrough the deregulation of the 1980s.
Part 2, The Agony of Reform, explores the upheavals that suchderegulation caused, focusing primarily on economic growth and gainsand touching briefly on the wrenching consequences for the poor.
Part 3, The New Rules of the Game, explores the consequences ofglobalization, including terrorism and the contagion of market collapse.
The series makes good use of both large-and small-scale examples, andfeatures interviews with several major world leaders. Big ideas aremade extremely accessible to the average viewer. Well worth watching.
