Course Description:

Political economy policy is about the conflict, contradiction and ambiguity that result
when the words "politics" and "economics" are thrown together. The intersection of
politics and economics raises questions - and sparks conflicts - about the fundamental
issues of politics: freedom, security, order, sovereignty, fairness, and democracy. In this
course we will examine how the struggles for power and for wealth affect one another
and the realization of these values. Specifically, we will compare and contrast political
and market solutions to collective problems; the politics of economic crises; corporations
and labor in the political economy; regulation, monetary policy; and fiscal policy.
