About the course

Explore global development by focusing on economic concepts, such as social identity, collective action, power relations, and psychological biases.

During this master’s you’ll address the contemporary challenges of global economic development.

You’ll adopt a multifaceted focus to analyse the real-world impacts of economic policy. This will allow you to see how the assumptions of economic theory can differ from lived reality, especially in impoverished communities.
