Course program
The course is divided into two parts. The first focuses on the ways in which the dimensions of society and that of the economy are interconnected and on how social actors approach and solve choice problems in the field of economics. The second aims to answer some questions through the analysis of development trajectories and development policies in advanced and non-advanced countries. In particular, we propose to deal with the following questions. Why are there countries that are growing faster than others? How are development processes and the factors connected to them activated, such as innovation, creativity, sustainability? What role do politics and policies play in promoting such processes? What other actors and organizations play a key role?
