The major purpose of this course is to show students how political decisions influence international economic relations. These are just a few of the questions that we will look at this semester. There are no prerequisites for this class and it is assumed that many of your will have a limited background in the study of international politics and economics. It is a difficult class because many of you will be unfamiliar with the economic and political terminology and the discussion that is used in some of the required texts. It is imperative that you attend each class and that you read the assigned materials diligently.
Exams consist of short identification, short answer and essay type questions.
Exams are not comprehensive but there is an assumption that the student has mastered the material on the previous exam. The DUE DATE for your book review is Wednesday, February 28 th .
