Pol Sci 4761: Politics of International Finance
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
In this course we examine the complex relationship between international finance, economic development, and domestic politics by drawing on the recent scholarly literature in economics, political science, and finance. The focus is on the theoretical literature on both the determinants of international financial flows and its effects on domestic societies. Specially, we focus on five forms of international finance: (1) international equity markets (stocks), (2) flows of foreign direct investment (multinational corporations), (3) currency markets (with a special focus on currency crisis), (4) international debt, (5) and international aid.

Pol Sci 4792: Globalization and National Politics
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This seminar examines globalization and its interaction with national politics. The movements of ideas, capital, goods, services, production, and people across national borders provide a skeletal framework for the global political economy. Politicians, policy makers, and societies discover new opportunities, but also dilemmas, as expanding interdependence challenges traditional notions of sovereignty and national policy autonomy. Prerequisite: Pol Sci 102 or Pol Sci 103.

Pol Sci 491: Collection and Analysis of Qualitative Data
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This course covers basic techniques for collecting, interpreting, and analyzing qualitative data. Students select a research project, collect appropriate qualitative data, and conduct a preliminary analysis. Students learn how to gather several types of qualitative data, including participant observation and open- and closed-ended interviews. In addition, they evaluate and analyze primary data collected by others including oral histories, archival records, interview transcripts. We consider the advantages and disadvantages of non-randomly collected data, such as those gathered though ethnographic and archival methods. We assess the utility of building statistical datasets from such data, and students learn the basic techniques of using computer programs such as Nvivo and Atlas.ti for qualitative data. Biweekly assignments that focus on different aspects of collection and analysis are designed to help students produce a research paper as a final project.

Pol Sci 495: Research Design and Methods
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This course provides an introduction to qualitative and quantitative research methods in political science. Topics address issues related to theory building as well as theory testing. Technical issues related to these methods are not the focus of this course, as are theoretical issues regarding the advantages and disadvantages of the different approaches. Ultimately, the goal of this course is twofold: (1) to instruct students to critically analyze scholarly articles with particular attention to research design; and (2) to guide students in how to design an original research project. Both the reading assignments, including methodological and applied readings, and the written assignments are directed toward these goals.

Pol Sci 496: Game Theory and Collective Choice
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
An introduction to models of collective choice important in political science, including game theory, the spatial voting model, and axiomatic social choice theory. The course concentrates primarily on noncooperative game theory, whose main topics include: strategic and sequential forms, Nash equilibrium, solution by backward induction, imperfect information, repeated games; and applications to voting, campaigning, public goods, agenda design, bargaining, and collective action. With noncooperative games as a foundation, the course then examines cooperative game theory (games in coalition form), voting as a social choice mechanism (including the median voter theorem and global cycling theorems), and social-choice possibility theorems (such as Arrow's Theorem). Prerequisite: Math 131 (Calculus I) or Pol Sci 5052 (Mathematical Modeling), or equivalent .
