Course
is taught in German, but most of the material is in English.
This course presents an overview over the development of the world
economy and the role of the U.S. in international trade relations since
the II. World War. We start with the most important trade theories, such
as the classic, neoclassic and new trade theories. Next, we analize the
trade instruments the U.S. uses in international negotiations. Current
trade conflicts between U.S. and EU as well as WTO dispute settlement are
also topics of the seminar. Moreover, students will be introduced to
multilateral institutions such as WTO and IMF as well as the decision
making processes in these institutions. The major purpose of this course
is to develop a comprehensive understanding of the institutions and the
political economy of the world trading system.
