European Economic Integration: Lessons and Perspectives
This course introduces students to the European integration process and its beneficial and adverse effects. Specifically, we will ask: What is the role of Europe in the global economic system?

We will also discuss economic integration in various parts of the world with particular reference to North America and Southeast Asia. (ECON 0150 and ECON 0155) 3 hrs. lect.
