International Affairs & Development

Economic development policy, foreign aid, democratic movements, global economic crisis, and adaptation to climate change are just a few of many topics in international affairs and development. Our research and teaching focuses on problems afflicting countries across the world, the institutional settings within which these problems arise, and the solutions offered by governments, NGOs (nongovernmental organizations), multinational organizations, and the private sector. In addition to focusing on economic development and governance structures within countries, we also explore political and economic relations between countries. These and other important issues facing our world today are investigated with powerful tools from economics, political science, and other social sciences.
