授業の目的 【英語】
Goals of the Course | | | Although living standards have improved in many countries over the past decades, the persistence of inequality, the slowdown of productivity, and the unintended consequences of globalization remain key policy issues. This seminar serves two primary purposes: (a) it introduces students to research tools for conducting and understanding empirical research in development economics, and (b) it gives an important platform to students to develop their seminar skills. |
