We are in “A World of Trouble.”
The global economic crisis is the story. And it will be the story for years to come.
By every estimate, we are only seeing the beginning of an historic downturn in the global economy.
And so GlobalPost assigned 20 correspondents to write on the 20 countries in which they live to assess the extent of the damage.
It is ground truth on the global economic crisis.
The project was headed up by GlobalPost’s Thomas Mucha, our Managing Editor for Correspondents and Commerce columnist. His keen insights into the economy and his profound understanding of how to unearth the truths we need to know are right there in every word of this project. Think of the country-by-country graphic as a navigation tool for you to use to get your head around the enormity of what we are facing.
GroundTruth is written by Charles Sennott, the Executive Editor and co-founder of GlobalPost. The blog is a way for GlobalPost to let you know what our correspondents all over the world are covering every day. It is a place where Sennott highlights the best work in the field by a stellar team of correspondents .
