International Studies 713/813
Global Political Economy
I. Course Description and Objectives
This course is the core seminar for the International Political Economy and Development track in the Graduate Program in International Studies. We begin with a review of alternate theoretical perspectives, organized at various levels of analysis. We then turn to development and dependency, placing special emphasis on international debt, structural adjustment, and economic assistance. The third section addresses gender and class inequalities, as well as global environmental issues. The course concludes with an analysis of ongoing systemic transformations, most notably regional and global integration. The core objectives of the course are to introduce students to the major concepts, theories and debates in the study of global political economy and to impart the knowledge and skills necessary to critically interpret state-market relations in the contemporary global order.
II. Course Requirements
Each student enrolled in this seminar is expected to fulfill the following course requirements.
1. Complete each week's required readings in advance and actively participate in all class sessions. Since this is a graduate seminar that meets just once a week, attendance at each session is required.
2. Prepare one-page, single-spaced summaries of three recommended readings. Each summary should have your last name in the upper right hand corner and include all bibliographic information on the reading at the top of the page. You should then go on to describe the basic content, central argument, and major contributions of the reading. You will be asked to briefly present these readings at the beginning of each class meeting and your written summaries will be distributed among the students enrolled in the course.
3. Complete a research paper on a topic of your choice related to global political economy. For masters students your paper should be at least 15 double-spaced pages plus a bibliography of works cited and for doctoral students your paper should be at least 20 double-spaced pages plus a bibliography of works cited. Your paper should include a brief review of past scholarly literature on your topic, a clear argument, empirical support for your argument, and an assessment of your contribution to the literature. Be sure to explain an observed phenomenon rather than evaluate the relative merits of a given outcome, offer policy proposals, or predict the future. Provide full citations (either footnotes or endnotes) for material you obtained from other sources. Your bibliography should include a combination of at least thirty different books, journal articles, and other documentary materials. Primary source materials are especially recommended. All sources should be referenced at least once in the body of the paper. The paper will be evaluated on the quality of your research, analysis, organization, and prose. Be sure to retain a copy of the paper separate from the one you submit. Your paper topic will be due on February 1, a rough draft will be due on March 29, and the final draft will be due on April 19.
4. Complete a take-home comprehensive final examination at the end of the term. You will be required to respond to three out of five questions on the exam. Your responses to each question should be 4-5 double-spaced pages in length. In preparing your responses, be sure to demonstrate knowledge of relevant scholarly literature, develop your own arguments, and provide evidence to support your positions. The exam will be distributed at our last class meeting on April 19 and will be due on April 26.
(Please note that assignments will be marked down three points for each day they are late. Please also notify me of any special needs and complete the on-line course evaluation at the end of the semester.)
III. Grading
Final grades will be calculated according to the following percentages.
Class Attendance and Participation: 20 %
Three Summaries of Readings: 15 %
Research Paper: 35 %
Final Examination: 30 %
IV. University Honor Code
Students are expected to comply with the University Honor Code
I pledge to support the Honor System at The University. I will refrain from any form of dishonesty or deception, such as lying, cheating, or plagiarizing, which are Honor violations. I am further aware that as a member of the academic community, it is my responsibility to turn in all suspected violators of the Honor System. I will report to an Honor Council if summoned.
