ECON6035: Global Economic History for Business
This unit provides students with an overview of global economic development over the past 1000 years with the objective of helping to understand today's global economy and business environment and what the future might hold. The motivating question throughout is: how did we get here and where are we going? This is addressed through an examination of both the global east and the global west. Conventional analysis is tested through the prism of history and long-run data. The unit of study examines global themes and then proceeds to consider geographies, building on the global theme lectures.
