GES 127 - Political Economy of Development

Type of Course: Lecture
Why do some people die from over-consumption and others from poverty and starvation? Development theories try to answer this fundamental question. This course critically examines these theories, including classical, neoclassical and Keynesian economies; modernization theory; dependency and world systems theories; postdevelopmentalism; feminism and feminist critiques of development. The course takes students with an initial interest especially in Third World development to a high level of critical understanding. Fulfills the Global Comparison perspective.
