課程概述

Economic development affects the living standards and options of people. One old question in economic development states that “why some countries grow much faster than others”. This is perhaps the central question in the study of development, and we approach it by reviewing and explaining the logic behind the most important arguments that have been advanced to account for differences across countries in rates and levels of economic development. 

課程目標
While economic growth is an important issue in economic development, there are many other interesting issues in economic development. The emphasis of the course in the first semester is on the studies of growth (both theoretical models and empirical work), population structure, inequality, poverty, fiscal policies, financial development and trade. 
課程要求
In this course, I will introduce the variable/data used to measure economic performance and then will focus on developing the macroeconomic model to explain the phenomenon we observe. A modest objective is for students to be able to read and comprehend daily economic reports in the news. With the final objective of understanding what brought about this event, the nature of the problem, how it will develop and what it is leading to.
