課程概述

This class is taught in English and can be taken separately or as a continuation of the first semester’s economic history course. This semester will cover the economic history of the 20th century emphasizing the Asian economies. An economy-by-economy overview of economic developments over the last hundred years will be presented. Other topical lectures may also be sprinkled in. Lectures will be put on line. I will go over the material in class using Zuvio (an interactive question-and-answer system). I will also sometimes give short lectures and give you time to work on group projects. Group work will involve writing a short paper concerning assigned readings. Most weeks, groups will be randomly assigned.  

課程目標
When you finish this course you should have a much clearer idea of how the Asian economies have developed over the last century. 
課程要求
No prerequisites. There will be a lot of statistics but no mathematical modeling. Students taking this course usually come from many different departments
