History of The Economist
Founded in 1843, by Scottish economist James Wilson, the magazine was first formed in retaliation to the Corn Laws, which were a system of tariff imports. The magazine soon found its footing and tone in political and economic matters throughout the United Kingdom. As the mid-20th century approached, the magazine reinvented itself with fresh new formats, political opinion columns, cartoons, and a plethora of thought-provoking reads. The Economist magazine's brand awareness was recognized by their staple fire-engine-red nameplate. Readers who gravitate towards ideas of neoliberal economics, free markets, trade, immigration, and globalization will find everything they need in The Economist magazine.
Content
The Economist holds a primary focus on politics, world events, businesses, and the symbiotic relationship that binds it all together. The magazine also offers a variety of content surrounding science, technology, literature, and even the arts. One defining feature that readers can look forward to is the bi-weekly special reports that can be found throughout the magazine. These reports touch on the granular details that affect any of the various topics covered in the Economist magazine. The four significant categories that readers gravitate towards are Business, Countries & Regions, Finance & Economics, and Science & Technology. With regard to technology, the Economist magazine takes special note of the relationship between humanity’s progression and technological advancement. That is why readers are treated to a feature known as Technology Quarterly: a look into how new technological advancements and inventions can help innovate human life even further.
