授業の内容や構成
Course Content / Plan | | First, this course overviews the rise of modern global economy in the 19th century as a precondition for the contemporary global economic development. Course participants learn that based on the Western industrialization, the international trade and division of labour expanded worldwide at a rapid pace. The Western imperialism and colonization spread across the globe, while intra-regional trade continued to grow and industrialization showed embryonic development in Asia in the late 19th century.
Second, the course focuses on the impact of WWI and the Great Depression on the world economy during the inter-war period between 1913 and 1940. Course participants learn that a series of turmoil caused the decline of European economic power and rise of USA and Asian economies as leading role for the sustained growth of world economy during the inter-war period.
Third, the course discusses the independence movements of Asia and African nations, the emergence of national economies, and the reformation of the global economy during the post-World War II period. Participants learn how Asian countries established their national economies based on industrialization and how it affected the restructuring of world economy centered on USA.
Fourth, the course highlights the East Asian Economic Miracle as the driving force for the economic globalization since the 1970s. Participants learn the fundamental factors, mechanisms, and theories for the rapid economic development in East and Southeast Asian countries in the past half centuries. |
