Offshoring. Lou Dobbs calls it “the most explosive economic issue of our time.” But who are the winners and losers from offshoring and other facets of globalization?
Dr. Prasanna Sethupathy, professor of international economics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS), will be visiting Wilmington on February 26th to address these questions and share the surprising results of his research into the impact of globalization on jobs, wages, and local economies.
Before earning his PhD at Columbia University, Dr. Sethupathy worked as an Analyst at JP Morgan and a Consultant to the World Bank. He also holds a B.S. degree in computer science from Stanford University. His presentation, ‘Globalization as Technology’, will take place at 12 pm on February 26th in the Madeline Suite at UNCW.
