Class seminar
My seminar
Consider themes related to development economy
Development economics is a field of economics that consider poverty elimination and economic development in developing countries. Developing countries are facing a variety of economic challenges, including hunger, discrimination, infectious diseases, conflicts, child labor, and the environment. On the other hand, as globalization progresses, new technological innovations have been created in developing countries, making them more advanced than in Japan. If you look at Japan from a different perspective after learning about development issues in developing countries, you can learn new things. The purpose of this seminar is to acquire the ability to understand the approach of development economics while reading literature on economic development in developing countries, and to consider the economy and society of developing countries from a broad perspective.
