Programma
The course is organized chronologically and touches on three major periods: the first liberal era up to 1914; the interwar period and the disintegration of the world economy (1914-1939); and the post-World War II period and the contemporary reintegration of the global economy. For each period, the course examines major developments in trade and commercial policy, payments and monetary systems, capital movements and labour migration. Moreover, the course illustrates the arguments for and against globalization, its impact on democracy, the nation state, inequalities and convergence at global level, and the historical lesson about losers and winners.
