Course Content
This course aims to develop a critical understanding on the changes in global political economy since the late 1970s. After a brief introductory discussion on state-market relationship and pre-1970 developments, the course will examine the reasons of the rise of neoliberalism, its dominance in economic policy-making since the 1980s, its implementation through different processes as well as its limits and contradictions with particular emphasis on the question of the changing role of state in the neoliberal era.
