Comment for Diploma students: not eligible<br />
Goals:<br />
The purpose of this course is to enhance students’ understanding on certain topics of economic<br />
globalization and economic integration. An elementary understanding will have been<br />
obtained in the courses „Trade Theory and Trade Policy“ (E320/E371) or „European Integration<br />
“ (E321), taught in the previous summer term. The idea is to move from the introductory<br />
or intermediate textbook-level up to a more advanced level approaching the frontier of academic<br />
research. Each of the participants will attempt to do so for a specific topic to be assigned<br />
in the seminar. Based on a brief list of journal articles, the student will write up a termpaper<br />
(about 25 pages length), to be presented in the seminar.<br />
Contents:<br />
The topics assigned will cover various aspects of international trade theory and policy, as<br />
well as issues of Development Economics, as taught in the above mentioned courses.<br />
