	This course introduces students to standard theories of development economics and explores how current trends in the global economy challenge those theories and existing policies. Focusing on the macro and micro-economic challenges facing governments in developing countries and the global institutions that attempt to assist them, we will work together to grapple with some of the key questions that mark our time: Why have some countries escaped poverty, while others have failed to do so or seen poverty worsen? What role do governments, aid agencies, and private sector actors play in alleviating poverty? This course will explore the intersection of theory and practice as we assess the challenges of policy formation and implementation and learn from guest practitioners engaged in development across a variety of sectors.
