I am coming up with a sample debate topic outline(not too elaborate) for class- and it must be on a current, global issue. I am thinking on addressing the currency fluctuations, but I don't really understand how any of it works, the current situation, or it's significance.

Question

Could someone PLEASE explain to me the current situation- which country's currency is most affected, and how it influences the global economy etc. and maybe provide a few good links to articles?

Thank you!

Answer 1

"but I don't really understand how any of it works"

Then I think you need to choose a different topic -- one that you DO understand!!

Answer 2

The most controversial issue right now is the value of the Chinese currency compared to others, such as the Dollar. This is a search site that will list several articles. Read, read, read. You'll get ideas for further searches for more information once you start here:

Answer 3

Writeteacher may be right - maybe you should choose another topic, but read about this one, then decide.

Answer 4

Yes, it's true that I don't know much about this topic. But that doesn't mean I can't learn about something new and more important. Thank you Reed!
