ECON 70.02 China: The Country, The Companies and the People
China will study inclusive growth in China from three distinct perspectives: the aggregate, the company and the people. The aggregate/macro level will inform us about the economic mechanisms that are driving growth and inequality and how the policies and institutions are impacting them. From a company perspective, we will investigate how they operate in China. Finally, people are what ultimately we care about as social scientists. Therefore, we will make a central goal of the off-campus portion of Ec70 to interact with the Chinese population and to shed some light on all those important questions posed above that are very hard to grasp from the distance.
