China in the Global Economic Order

4 credits

China’s role in the global economy and its implications for regimes of global governance. Topics include trade, lending, investments, the globalization of state-owned enterprises, currency internationalization, participation in regional and international organizations, and China’s economic diplomacy and foreign policy. We will ask whether China contributes to or threatens the liberal economic order; what governments and policy actors can do to engage China in a productive and peaceful fashion. Students may not receive credit for GPPS 406 and the IRGN 490 with the same title.
