DESCRIPTION
This unit will comprise an advanced seminar in international political economy (IPE), building upon the introductory undergraduate unit in IPE (HSD2/341). The unit explores the concept of a global political economy, and examines the key themes, theories and paradigms in IPE in the contemporary literature. The unit covers three main areas: (i) theoretical approaches to the global political economy; (ii) major developments in 20th-century IPE; and (iii) case studies from North America, Europe and East Asia. Australia is included as a paradigmatic case of a 'middle power' that is both an influential actor in, as well as a state profoundly affected by, the global political economy.
Units are offered in attending mode unless otherwise indicated (that is attendance is required at the campus identified). A unit identified as offered by distance, that is there is no requirement for attendance, is identified with a nominal enrolment campus. A unit offered to both attending students and by distance from the same campus is identified as having both modes of study.
