The focus of the course is China’s external economic engagement through a political economy lens. The course will teach students to produce original research by developing relevant methodological and data analysis skills related to Chinese and international political economy, culminating in a ~6000 word term paper. The study trip component—involving a week of travel to China during spring break—will allow students to learn about the views of Chinese officials, practitioners, and scholars.
