ECON 70.02 China: The Country, The Companies and the People

China will study inclusive growth in China from three distinct perspectives: the aggregate, the company and the people. The aggregate/macro level will inform us about the economic mechanisms that are driving growth and inequality and how the policies and institutions are impacting them. From a company perspective, we will investigate how they operate in China. Finally, people are what ultimately we care about as social scientists. Therefore, we will make a central goal of the off-campus portion of Ec70 to interact with the Chinese population and to shed some light on all those important questions posed above that are very hard to grasp from the distance.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
