2nd Semester, 2017-2018
"Development Management under Globalization" is a selective and applied course in the Economic Development Policy and Management Program.
This course deals with the frontier-yet-fundamental issues of ‘Development Management under Globalization (グローバリゼーション下の開発マネジメント)’. The course covers selected topics such as: economic development under the changing environment of globalization (risks and benefits associated with globalization, rise and demise of the East Asian growth model, Africa’s marginalization, convergence club under globalization); international trade and development (inward- vs. outward-oriented development strategies and trade reforms, regionalism vs. multilateralism, WTO and industrial promotion); external financing of development (ODA, FDI and multilateral corporations, portfolio flows, debt & financial crises); managing open-economy development (BOP management, the order of liberalization, exchange rate regimes and monetary policy rules, fiscal sustainability, crisis management); and toward governance and quality of growth under globalization (growth and equity under globalization). Consecutive enrollment from Development Economics will be highly effective. Knowledge of Development Economics, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, and basic statistics/econometrics is preferred. |
