Omschrijving | South Korea was one of the poorest countries in the world after the Korean war in 1950s. Now South Korea has become one of the leading industrial countries in the world. Korea’s economic development history of the last decades appears to be a good example for developing countries to follow. This course is designed to provide students with the knowledge of development experience of the Korean economy and contemporary issues of the current Korean economy. In specific, the government strategy and policies for economic growth, challenges for sustainable growth, and the side effects of rapid economic growth will be discussed in addition to some topical issues of the current Korean economy. | ||||||||||||||||
