Description
The World in 2015, the latest in The Economist's annual collection of predictions, identifies and explores the issues that will shape the year ahead. Prominent figures from politics, business, science and the arts join journalists from The Economist and other leading publications in offering forecasts for 2015. Politicians such as Joko Widodo and Matteo Renzi outline their plans for reforms, Hillary Clinton focuses on closing the gender gap and David Blaine reassures us that magic can still amaze.
For much of 2015, the world’s divisions will draw the most attention. While some economies are moving ahead, others are in danger of slipping back into recession. Nationalism is on the rise even as the West argues over how to respond to a rogue Russia and rampant jihadists. But it’s not all gloom: sporting and speed records could be broken, cinema-goers will delight in a new Bond movie and a new Star Wars sequel, and NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft will give us a fleeting glimpse of Pluto.

Customer Reviews
Good content; poor delivery
As always the content is good if not great but why do you need to put noting this cludgy App. For someone who LISTENS to every weekly edition of the economist in your App why not deliver it that way for subscribers. The Audio delivery / menus and access is terrible and gets in the way of consuming the content. Would also like to see 1.5x speed but that would be fixed if delivered via normal app.
Great
Gives a lot of information on stuff I never knew and I really like it because it helps me with my homework
It's perfect
Gives a lot of information ☺️
