Aims
At the end of the course, students will be able to:
  • understand and apply perspectives from political science and economics to  the world political economy
  • identify and qualify International Political Economy and its approaches as an interdisciplinary field of study
  • recognise and analyse the interplay of economic and political factors in accounting for phenomena in the world political economy
  • apply such approaches to problems of trade, international monetary relations, global governing institutions and development
Content
The course Current Debates in International Political Economy lays the foundations for the Master's programmes in International Political Economy that are offered by the departments of Economics and Political Science. Based on advanced knowledge of major approaches to national and international economics and politics, the course intends to map out the empirical domains of the world political economy by focusing on specific issues such as trade, international monetary relations, wealth creation, power, institutions and legitimacy. The course is team taught by instructors from the departments of Economics and Political Sciences in order to train students in the different perspectives of these disciplines on the subject and to investigate whether a combined, integrated approach is feasible.
