It is likely important for all people in the USA, Sweden, and Austria to be healthy, but the healthcare systems in these countries differ significantly. The same applies to the job market ("Job security for honest workers vs. Hire and Fire for innovation strength?"), the regulation of the financial sector ("Tax money for rich bankers vs. Systemic relevance of banks?"), or the healthcare system ("Free treatment for all vs. Private insurance system?"). What explains these differences? To understand the role as a participant in a democratic society—whether as a decision-maker, voter, or taxpayer—one needs an understanding of the forces and dynamics that explain these differences. In this course, you will analyze how governments make policies and why countries find different solutions to societal problems. In this context, we will examine several policy areas that are essential for societal cohesion, such as labor market policy, regulation of the financial sector, or healthcare policy. The course is aimed at students who want to connect economics with politics. Please note that Courses I and II are connected in content. Course I provides an introduction to different explanatory approaches, while Course II offers the opportunity to apply these explanatory approaches in specific policy areas. |
