Course Description:
In this course we try to answer to important questions. First, what explains
international economic relations between countries? Second, how can countries
maximize the gains from international relations? What happens when countries
actively intervene? The first question is dealt with in the parts 'Theory of
international trade', ‘Foreign Direct Investment and Multinational Corporations' and
'Determinants of international migration'. The second question is traditionally the
subject of 'international trade policy'. The course Economic Globalisation is
considered a basic course, which should make students familiar with the 'traditional' theory of international trade, the basics of ‘modern' trade theory,
theories of foreign direct investment and international migration, international
trade policy, regional economic integration and the role of the World Trade
Organisation.
