Political Science - Comparative Perspectives on the Development State POLI 4355   Comparative Perspectives on the Development State
CREDIT HOURS: 3
This course examines development in a broad regional comparative context to determine whether endogenous or exogenous conditions account for the success with which the North/Southeast Asian economies have been transformed vis-a-vis Latin America and Africa. The course compares the "development state" model across the developing world, by briefly focusing on three distinct cases - South Africa, Malaysia and Brazil - as "upwardly mobile" late industrialisers.
