About International Development (International Political Economy and Development), MSc - at University of Birmingham

Issues examined include: competing theories of political economy and political development; how theories of development link to development practice; different political systems and their histories; the complex relationship between political economy and development, including trade, financial systems, and aid; the impact of political systems and political actors on developmental success and failure; the impact of the global, regional and national political economy on aid and donor policies. The programme is designed for recent graduates preparing to work in international development and for professionals working for NGOs, donor or government funded development programmes.
