課程大綱
課程目標
This seminar explores the integration of trade and financial markets from a political
economy perspective. That is, we examine the welfare and distributional aspects of
international trade and finance as they relate to the politics of national and
international economic policymaking. Substantive topics include: the winners and
losers of globalization; determinants of trade policies; international capital mobility
and currency crises; the role of the IMF, the World Bank, and the WTO; and
globalization and economic development.
課程概述
The integration of national economies via trade, investment by multinational
companies, and flows of financial capital is said to have changed the way the world
works. Indeed, the economic and political consequences of economic globalization
are hotly debated. Does economic globalization cause inequality, instability,
unemployment, and environmental degradation? Or is it an engine of prosperity and
wealth for the vast majority of the world's citizens? Does globalization pose a
fundamental challenge to the policymaking autonomy of the nation-state? Or is there
a positive role for national governments, individually and collectively?
