Who We Are

I'm Steve Suranovic, an Associate Professor of Economics and International Affairs at The George Washington University in Washington D.C.

I have been constructing this web site since 1996, primarily for use by my students in international economics courses at GW and at the Cornell in Washington program. The main feature's are two online textbooks; an international trade textbook and an international finance textbook that I have used as a substitute for a traditional textbook since Spring 1997. Students have been extremely receptive to this new technology, in part, because it saves them from purchasing a $90 to $120 textbook.

Other features at the site include links to current international trade news stories, a site devoted to the issue of fairness in international trade, opinion articles, and much more.

My hope is that this site will be useful for students and professionals interested in keeping up-to-date on international economic issues. Stay tuned for future developments since this site will be continually updated, expanded and improved.

The website was redesigned in 2007 by Karin Tracy at littleb design.
