Introduction:
 
Globalization, by definition, fundamentally challenges the role and significance of the nation state, the central political institution of the modern world. This course examines how that tension has developed, how it has been managed, and with what results. It does so by:
 

• Assessing the nation state’s role in relation to key components of globalized economic relations: trade, capital and migratory flows
• Assessing the responses of nation states to the pressures of globalization, by looking at such issues as taxation and social security spending
• Examining the role of some of the global institutions constructed by nation states to ‘manage’ globalization, such as the IMF and the World Bank
• Examining two case studies of recent ‘anti-globalization’ politics, the UK and the USA

 
Course aims:
 

• To introduce students to a series of topics and debates in the area of globalization
• To encourage students to think about the variety of questions raised in the study of modern political economy, and situate them in a broad context of economic and political change.
• To promote the students’ critical understanding of secondary literature across the full range of topics relevant to globalization, including, for example, GATT and tariff issues.
• To encourage students to express their ideas and put forward arguments on complex subjects in the recent political economy of globalization

 
 
Learning Outcomes:
 
On completion of the course students will be able to:
 

• demonstrate a critical understanding and systematic knowledge of the the relationship between globalization and the nation state.
• demonstrate an ability to critically evaluate theories and evidence relevant to the subject
• demonstrate an ability to apply critical analysis in order to evaluate key issues concerning political decision-making in shaping economic developments
• demonstrate the capacity to synthesize complex theories from the frontiers of the discipline with appropriately evaluated evidence

 
 
Teaching:
 

• each two hour class will consist of a mixture of lectures and seminars, with an emphasis on student participation.

 
Coursework:
 

• students will complete two pieces of assessed work.
• one assignment will test knowledge of key concepts (1,000 words) and will form 25% of the assessment (Due date: 4.00 pm on Monday 17th February 2020).
• one essay of 3,000 words which will form 75 % of the assessment (Due date: 4.00 pm on Wednesday 1st April 2020).

 
You must submit two hard copies of the assignment to the box in the Adam Smith building, and also through Urkund electronic submission system
 
 
Extensions:
 

• As course convenor I am allowed to give an extension for a maximum of three

days if circumstances warrant it. Any extension for longer than this can only
be approved by the programme convenor, Dr Duncan Ross or Prof. Jeffrey Fear.
