International trade issues are everywhere in the news. The rumblings of the Ukraine war, U.S.-China trade wars, Brexit disagreement, the Make America Great Again controversy, and other events of the day underscore the significance of international trade in our lives. A grasp of international trade theory and policy should allow students to analyze events occurring in the world economy and evaluate the wisdom of national policies. By combining theory with current events, the course will enable students to make sense of the persistent debates on international trade issues in public forums. Upon completing the class, students will be able to evaluate the new era, explain the theories of trade and policy, and identify the US and China's significance in the world economy.
