Obiettivi formativi
This course will provide the basic instruments for analysing international economics and globalization, accounting for the main theories, empirical evidence and experiences that have been pursued by specific groups (industrialised, emerging and developing) of countries.
During the course, we will discuss the following topics: history of globalization, including the most recent debates on de-globalization, global governance, main models of international integration, trade and investment policies, and international mobility of workers.
While we will review the main theoretical aspects explaining the making of globalization and its governance, the course will mostly be “evidence-based” and will provide discussion on the main policies and case studies.
The course will raise students' awareneess of the the advantages and the perils of globalization, and the main instruments used by the governments and the private sector to deal with them. Such skills will be relevant within jobs in national and international institutions, NGOs and the private sector.
