Overview

The module will provide an overview of the history of global economic development and introduce some of the tools and models that economists have used to explain this experience. The module will consider models of individual choice and game theory and models of firm behaviour and market interaction. These models will be used to help understand many of the features of both the past and the contemporary world, including population and economic growth over time; inequality and climate change.
