Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This course discusses how markets, government and institutions work, how they substitute or complement each other, and how they affect the economic performance of developing countries. We will discuss both theory and empirical evidence. The course will be taught at an introductory level.
Assessment and permitted materials
Students will be evaluated on the basis of their presentations during the course and written homeworks to be handed in regularly.
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Students will develop analytical skills to think independently about the balance between market and government, as well as about the design of development policies.
Examination topics
Different topics will be discussed, as well as the related empirical evidence and policy debates. There will be a mix of lectures by Cuñat and presentations/discussion by the students of the material covered in the course.
Reading list
The main references for the course will be Partha Dasgupta (2007): Economics. A Very Short Introduction, Oxford University Press, and Debraj Ray (1998): Development Economics, Princeton University Press. We will also discuss academic and policy articles related to particular issues in the course.
