社会・制度Ⅲ(PEAK)
Introduction to Economic Policy
This course is designed to supplement a standard introductory course of economics and will discuss some of the fundamental concepts of economics, with a focus on examination of economic policies. Drawing on the basics of microeconomics with references to some more contemporary frameworks (asymmetric information, game theory, behavioral economics, etc.), the course will provide conceptual foundations for evaluating various types of economic policy, including trade policy, antitrust policy, policy on income inequality, and macroeconomic policies. While the knowledge of advanced mathematics is not required for course participation, the students should note that the lectures will include discussions of some mathematical economic models. Meanwhile, although the course mainly targets students who have already studied introductory economics, it sets no prerequisites for registration and is open to all students.
