Int'l Politics & Economics

The IP&E program welcomes majors and prospective majors to a reception to celebrate the beginning of the academic year. The reception is also meant as a way for students returning from abroad to reconnect with friends and professors.

Xan Smiley’s career in journalism has spanned more than half a century, predominantly as a writer and editor for The Economist, focusing on coverage of sub-Saharan Africa, Russia and the Soviet Union, the Middle East, the European Union, and the United States. In this lecture, Xan will analyze the success and failures of The Economist’s (and his own) coverage of events that have shaped the world.
