    The New School

    Advanced Policy Analysis Three credits. This course provides an advanced treatment of the theoretical foundations of policy analysis. The course examines alternative tools of analysis, ranging from models of individual choice and market behavior to group and institutional behavior and the development and role of social norms; contemporary political philosophies of public policy and the practice of policy analysis; and the tools and perspectives that drive the actual practice of public decision-making. Usually held during the university's winter break, Democracy and Diversity is a two-week program of interdisciplinary courses taught jointly by faculty from The New School for Social Research and from South Africa and attended by students from The New School and a number of African and Eastern European universities. Past courses have focused on the politics, culture, and economics of development, including a seminar on Political Democratization and Economic Liberalization. The program is founded and run by the school's Transregional Center for Democratic Studies. The Cape Town program can be taken for credit, and some scholarship funds are available.
