Objectives:<\/span><\/p>\n

This course introduces students to the study of international political economy (IPE). It addresses the reciprocal, interactive relationship between politics and economics in the international system.\u00a0 Increasingly integrated global markets present growing challenges and opportunities for political actors around the world. We will explore the effects of political factors on international economic relations as well as the impact of economic factors on domestic and international politics across a variety of issue areas in IPE.<\/p>\n

The course first introduces the general historical and theoretical frameworks that guide the study of IPE. It then applies these frameworks to the relations between the principal state and non-state actors in a variety of issues in IPE, including international trade, foreign investment flows, international monetary relations, economic development, currency crises, and global environmental affairs. The course concludes with a consideration of the challenges that globalization presents to the political management of national and international markets.<\/p>\n

\n<\/strong>USE OF SOURCE MATERIALS<\/strong>*<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Correct use and acknowledgment of source materials is vital to any research project.\u00a0 Only through accurate documentation can the reader distinguish the writer\u2019s original contribution from those of others.\u00a0 This allows the reader (1) to consult the source of a fact or opinion if he or she so desires and (2) to assign credit or blame judiciously \u2014 to the writer or to the writer\u2019s sources.\u00a0 Moreover, failure to acknowledge source material properly constitutes plagiarism and is subject to the appropriate penalties.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The basic rule is this: If you use material drawn from something beside your own first-hand experience, and the material is not \u201ccommon knowledge,\u201d that is, something that \u201ceverybody knows,\u201d give credit to your source.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you quote directly, even a word or phrase, use quotation marks and<\/span> footnote.**<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you paraphrase (i.e., take the ideas and put them into your own words), footnote.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you organize material in the unique manner of someone else, give that person credit in the text and, usually, in a footnote as well.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A good rule of thumb is to ask yourself: \u201cCould a reader who consulted the works listed in my bibliography recognize in my paper sentences, phrases, and even striking words; patterns of organization; interpretations or attitudes or points of view or whole ideas or facts, as deriving from any one of these sources?\u201d\u00a0 If the reader could, you must footnote those passages.\u00a0 Any clear parallels between your paper and any of its sources that a reader would discover from consulting these sources, you should already have told him or her through footnotes or informal acknowledgments.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you borrow everything in your paper, footnote everything in your paper!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Once your paper is turned in, the reader has the right to assume that whatever appears in the paper, unless otherwise indicated, is your own work or is \u201ccommon knowledge.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It should be noted that a paper that is merely a patchwork of other people\u2019s words and ideas is a poor paper.\u00a0 Because of the particular slant on the topic you have been asked to consider; because of the particular combination of sources you have consulted; because of the independence of your own creative mind, your paper should be organically different from any of the various sources that have contributed to it.<\/p>\n
