Outsourced is a story of discovery. An American businessman, Todd, travels to India and unexpectedly finds himself. He trains his replacement, Puro, who finds his future not in India as he anticipated, but in China. And a young woman, Asha, who works for both of them, finds herself as her future. Each of these people cross cultural barriers, changing their assumptions about others, the world and themselves. Todd learns to let go of his corporate role as a middle manager; Puro learns that Indian women are as capable as men; Asha learns to believe in herself. How do adolescents learn about other people, places, and cultures? How do they perceive and make sense of others, their cultures and relationships to them? What impact does the current flood of business globalization practices have on what they eat, wear, view, and play? Why isn't the work that is outsourced being done in America? How does globalization help us empathize or care about those who are doing most of the work? These and other essential questions ground this high school curriculum for Outsourced.

Biography of John McEwen, leader of the Federal Country Party from 1958 to 1971 and a complex man.John McEwen, thirty-seven years a politician, twenty-three days a Prime Minister and always a farmer, was an extraordinary mix of a man. His staff revered him and his adversaries feared him. There was no one, friend or foe, who did not respect him. Orphaned at seven and raised in poverty, this self-educated soldier-settler overcame difficult beginnings to dominate the Australian political arena for twenty years. The success of the Liberal-Country Party coalition throughout the fifties and sixties is largely attributed to McEwen's strength and influence. Towering and formidable in both stature and personality, Black Jack's turbulent political career was never without controversy. His succession to the Prime Ministership in 1967, after the disappearance of Holt, followed one of the most notorious episodes of Australian political history when McEwen refused to serve under McMahon. Black Jack's commitment to developing Australian trade won him international respect and his influence on Australian economic and trade policy is enduring.
