Revision program for the second in-class exam (January 05 and 06):

• Susan Wicklund
• The Cost of Coffee
• The Brain Drain From African Countries
• Amartya Sen
• The phrasal verbs (all the pages)
• All the idiomatic expressions (horse/arm/leg/foot/head)
  
• Vocabulary from Susan Wicklund, The Brain Drain and Sen

I will try to return your papers before this exam and I will let you know where and when you can come and check your papers.

Here is a very insightful interview with the famous Turkish writer Orhan Pamuk (2006 Nobel Prize laureate for literature) from PBS. In almost the same lines as Amartya Sen, Orhan Pamuk very precisely and very accurately discusses and de-constructs this so misleading issue of "clash of civilizations", specially in the context of Turkey but this could be applied to many "other" civilizations from "different" parts of the world:

I will be outside France until January 01 and I may not be able to answer your emails before that date.
