Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
Reflecting our integrated teaching and learning concept, this course includes the building of theoretical knowledge as well as its application to specific cases in East Asia. As a first step, students learn about the key theories of economic development. This knowledge is then made operational and applied to an analysis of economic development in various countries of East Asia. The focus is on the dynamic process of economic development and the corresponding role of the state. Comparative analyses of the East Asian cases are conducted against this background, in particular considering liberal-democratic vs. authoritarian-socialist models. We focus less on empirical knowledge about the economic history of East Asia, but rather aim at developing and testing an applicable framework for the analysis of their development.
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
Students’ participation in discussion is an integral part of this course. Regular participation is thus mandatory. The following rules apply: The final grade remains unchanged in the case of up to three absences. If you are absent for up to 4 times, the final grade will be reduced by one full grade. If you are absent for up to 5 times, the final grade will be reduced by two full grades, and so forth.
Students must write a term paper (Seminararbeit). Details including layout and grading criteria will be announced during class. The term papers are due on April 15th, 2015. Term papers will only be accepted via Email as WinWord or similar files such as OpenOffice (I have to be able to conduct an automated word count). You will receive a short confirmation of receipt.
A delay in term paper submission of up to 1 week will result in downgrading by one full grade. A delay in term paper submission of up to 2 weeks will result in downgrading by two full grades, and so forth.
The final grade for the course will be calculated as follows:
Term paper: 50%
Team presentations: 50% (25% each)

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
Students master the fundamental ideas of various key theories of economic development; in particular classical/neoclassical, Marxist, Keynesian and dependency theory, dirigisme, structuralism, and neoliberalism. They understand the developmental paths of the individual East Asian countries both from a general perspective and with regard to their particularities, and are able to conduct comparative, method-based country case analyses and to apply the acquired knowledge to contemporary developments in the region.
Prüfungsstoff
This is a text-based seminar. Accordingly, in preparation of each unit, students will be asked to read related book chapters or articles. This will create a foundation for active discussion during the seminar. Expect reading about 40 pages per week.
In addition, each student will be required to actively contribute to at least two team presentations. This includes joint handouts with the key points on the assigned topic, and joint PPT presentations. Handouts and PPTs must be submitted electronically before the course begins.
