| Description: | HYBRID COURSE. ECO-220-01=ASI-277-01=PPE-256-01 The goal of this course is to offer an overview of different aspects of the global economy. It provides a basic understanding of the fundamental theories of international economics including both international trade and international finance, with regard to the historical and institutional contexts in which the U.S. economy operates, and to broaden the understanding of other economies by studying their policy problems within the analytical framework of international economics. With globalization, an economy cannot be treated individually, and so it is important to know how differences in location can make economic activities easier. This course has two parts: the first part will focus on topics on international trade such as, trade theories, trade policies and impacts of international trade on the environment. The second part of this course will concentrate on topics on international finance such as, balance of payments, exchange rates, regional issues in global economy, etc. This course explores the economic fundamentals regarding the dynamics of global economy, and how to relate it to the current, global and real-world scenarios in terms of economic, social, and political interactions. |
