課程概述

The seminar is composed of three main parts: the economic (sessions 2-6), political (sessions 7-11), and social (sessions 12-16) theories of national development. It begins with an introduction to the course, and ends with a conclusion on the future developments for Taiwan, Asia and the globe.
The central questions for the economic part of the course are: (1) What are the major economic forces that drive development? (2) How do government policies and economic institutions affect the development process? (3) Where do "good" policies and institutions come from? Our goal is to understand how the development process works and to identify policy reforms that will make a difference.
The political part of the course will have two major goals. Firstly, there will be a critical examination of a number of the most important theoretical approaches to political and economic developments pertinent to the comparative analysis of the East Asian political economy. Secondly, the course will focus specifically on East Asian and Taiwan’s experiences in development and try to draw lessons from the East Asian or the Taiwan model.
The focuses for the social part of the seminar are to examine the sociological critics on existing development theories and to provide students with a view of socio-political bases of economic activities. Topics covered include definitions of development, institutions and structural changes, globalization and the question of locality, global social justice, as well as development and social opportunities.

Session 2: The Historical Experience of Economic Development: After looking at the historical record of economic development in contemporary rich countries, we then ask the question why the Industrial Revolution did not originate in China?

Session 3: Globalization, Inequality and the Process of Development: We examine theoretical links between poverty, inequality and globalization. We also review cross country evidence on trade, growth, and poverty.

Session 4: Theories of Development: Review of the neoclassical and endogenous growth models. One of the main reasons why some countries are poor is that they lack the physical and human capital that are necessary to produce. We also look at alternative approaches to growth that stress the role of technology, externalities in human capital formation, financial development and trade. We review how this has been modelled, what the evidence looks like and what insight this gives us into the development process.

Session 5: Institutions and Economic Performance: A new wave of research now sees institutions as key to understanding differences between countries. We discuss what is meant by an institution and how this may shape the pattern of development. We look at empirical evidence for the claim that institutions are important.

Session 6: Governance: Much stress is now place on good government as a key element of effective development. We discuss incentives in government. We also discuss evidence on corruption and its effect on development. We review the case for greater decentralization of government to improve the quality of government.
