International Trade, Migration and Health - Case Studies

Luca Stella

Kommentar

This course provides a graduate-level introduction to the study of international economics, covering some of the most important theories and applications of international trade, health, and migration. Each week, the presentation of theorethical contributions is accompanied by a comprehensive overview of the corresponding empirical validations. The course is divided into three parts. During the first part, we will introduce the basics of international trade. Current debates surrounding globalization and international trade are assessed against the concepts and empirical evidence taught in class. In particular, we will investigate the determinants of trade patterns, the Ricardian model and its empirical applications, the employment effect of the China shock, and study the causes and effects of trade policy. The objective is to gauge how international trade and globalization affect welfare, firms, labor markets and wages. During the second part, we will illustrate how economists analyze the production of health and the delivery of health care services. Substantial attention is given to socio-economic determinants of health and health consequences of the digital revolution. This part will emphasize the link between economic theory and health policy introducing students to topical issues such as the economics of sleep. During the third part, we will introduce the basics of the economics of immigration. Topics to be covered include: selection in immigration, immigrant assimilation, labor market effects of immigration, and the effects of immigration on various outcomes (e.g., health, attitudes, voting, crime, and fertility). For active participation: regular attendance of lectures and seminar presentations. All students are required to present one of the different seminar papers or to summarize an assigned chapter. Presentations should be 20 minutes long and outline the content of the article/topic to be discussed. In cases of research papers, this includes identifying the research question, methodology, and findings. Presenters should be prepared to answer questions related to the reading. For a grade: written final examination. The final exam will cover all topics discussed in class. Once you have been accepted to the seminar on Tuesday you will be added to this seminar shortly after the registration period ends. Attendance at the first session is mandatory. Schließen
