Marketplace reports from the Middle East

Posted at 3:51 PM on March 3, 2008 by Julia Schrenkler

Marketplace is in Cairo and Dubai for a special coverage series, under the approach that:

"No region outside the United States affects Americans' pocketbooks, politics and portfolios more than the Middle East."

To get a closer look at the region, spend some time with the slideshows and videos, stories, and various viewpoints. You can even read and comment on their staff notebook.

Join the online conversation where we're discussing Can Cairo afford globalization?
