<p>In an increasingly fragmented global economy, this course equips you with the practical tools you need to understand and navigate complex issues ranging from trade wars to the rise of economic nationalism. </p><p>The course covers both regional and multilateral integration, as well as the institutional and economic context in which they take place. For multilateral integration, you find a focus on the challenges the World Trade Organization (WTO) has been grappling with for many years, along with newer issues concerning the balance between economic and non-economic objectives. </p><p>For regional integration, you find a focus on tariff analysis - for instance, what does the recent research literature have to say about the effects of President Trump’s trade wars? - as well as on non-tariff barriers, such as technical barriers to trade and trade procedures. You also analyse the effects of trade integration within countries, for example on the labour market and the rise of populist political movements. A key theme throughout the course is disintegration in various forms, including anti-globalisation and economic nationalism, and the use of trade barriers as a tool in economic diplomacy, such as sanctions. </p><p>Lastly, you get a detailed overview of empirical and theoretical methods for evaluating the effects of economic integration, and it trains you to explain complex analyses to both experts and non-experts.</p>
