GPPA 408. Politics, Policy, and Markets in Modern Financial Crises (4 units)

Link to catalog page: https://catalog.ucsd.edu/courses/GPS.html#gppa408

Description

The course examines the 2008–2009 financial crisis through the lens of public and private sector participants with an interest in exploring the real-world challenges of practical governance, the threat of “too-big-to-fail,” limits on authorities, and questions about who should be included in the circle of government protection in a crisis. Through speeches, writings, and testimony of key actors, we will develop a framework for evaluating other financial crises, such as those in the 1990s. Students may not earn credit for GPPA 408 and GPGN 490 with the same title.
