| Objectives |
(*)The goal is to gain a working knowledge of standard analytical tools, and a familiarity with current research topics in trade and the real side of international economic policy. This includes dual general equilibrium theory, commercial policy and regional integration, theories of industrial location and agglomeration, trade and the distribution of income, and trade and accumulation/growth. It also includes the recent empirical literature on testing this body of theory (policy determination, trade and FDI flows, firm-level evidence on productivity and openness, openness and inequality).
