University Open Air: Recession or Depression: Who Feels the Effects?
There are two school of thought about current economic circumstances: people who have good jobs may not be worried about inflation becuase they have incomes to meet needs. On the other hand, people facing termination are struggling with mental trauma or depression; for them, there is a recession. This class will consider how we perceive economic struggles based on our positions in various scales of workplace.
