Zielsetzung | The aim of this course is to provide students with an overview of basics, specific features, characteristics and functioning of the international economy, international relations and the corresponding supranational and international organisations. Students will get to know the differences between a closed and an open economy and will be sensitised for risks and spill-overs due to international linkages and repercussions from the global economy on the domestic economy. Students will examine vulnerabilities and resilience of countries to international linkages and spill-over thereby differentiating between advanced countries and on the other hand developing countries and emerging markets. Moreover, students will become familiar with monetary and trade policy options from a unilateral, regional and global perspective and will assess these critically. |
