DESCRIPTION

The programme provides high quality post-graduate teaching and research training in the analysis of “emerging economies” with an emphasis on issues of poverty reduction, inequality and social policy in particular. Based at King’s International Development Institute, the programme draws on social scientific expertise located across other departments in the Schools of Social Sciences & Public Policy and Arts & Humanities. The programme offers a distinctive approach to the study of development by focusing on “emerging economies” with an emphasis on issues of poverty reduction, inequality and social policy in particular. These include reviewing economic development theory to ask whether these countries offer a new model or models of development, looking at strategies that emerging economies have adopted to promote development, how inclusive and sustainable or enduring these new strategies are, how emerging markets solve difficult problems of promoting growth over the longer term, including development and diffusion of technology, managing trade and financial flows, balancing the role of the state and the market, and dealing with problems of institutional underdevelopment and weak systems of law and accountability.
