| Inhalt |
This course will provide students with an empirical and theoretical overview of the interactions between politics and economics. Otherwise said, how domestic and international politics affect the movement of goods, services, people, and capital. We will pay particular attention to the way in which financial crises, regional integration, new technologies, the incorporation of new economic powers and protectionism affect these flows. A first part of the course looks at major shifts in the global economy from a historical perspective, defines international political economy (IPE), and comparatively examines its main schools and theories. In doing so, particular emphasis is paid to key actors such as: states (and the role played by power and hegemony); international institutions (e.g. WTO); and non-state actors (e.g. multinational corporations and NGOs). A second part examines particular aspects of IPE such as: the international monetary system and financial crises, the world trade regime, variations in state economic policies, and North-South relations regarding development and inequality. Challenges to global governance resulting from these issues will receive particular attention.
