AN INTRODUCTION:
Globalization is responsible for a lot of bad writing. Part of the problem lies with the term itself; globalization remains an enigma. People have difficulty defining it, but claim to know it when they see it. The opinion mafia tries to use it an all-encompassing prism through which one can make sense of world affairs. This sort of concept is difficult to pin down, and all the more dangerous because of it; without rigorous analysis of such arguments, policymakers are prone to accept misperceptions of globalization that are politically expedient.
Globalization, as defined in this course, means the reduction of barriers to the exchange of goods, services, and ideas across national borders. In the past three decades, a constellation of technological, economic, and political changes have drastically reduced barriers to international exchange.
Technologically, innovations in containerization and telecommunications have minimized the costs of moving goods from point to point.
Economically, financial innovations and the growth of multinational corporations have made it easier for capital to move from one country to another.
Politically, states have been willing to reduce tariffs, non-tariff barriers, and obstacles to investment, magnifying the importance of the aforementioned economic and technological innovations.
The Internet is the epitome of this trend. There are minimal costs (in developed economies) to getting on line, and once on the World Wide Web, there is no distinction between purchasing goods made in the same zip code and goods made ten time zones away. And the traditional sources of authority in world politics, nation-states, have tolerated or even promoted these developments.

COURSE OVERVIEW
The course is divided into four discrete sections. The introductory sessions nail down the definition of globalization (the previous paragraph sounds very good, but maybe it’s wrong), and then discuss the panoply of theories about globalization. Understanding these different theoretical lenses will prove useful for the rest of the course.
The second section expands our understanding of the economic effects globalization. Does globalization enrich or impoverish the global population? Does globalization imply an era of permanent financial instability? Does the increase in capital mobility enable or constrain labor? Are states hampered in their ability to regulate their economies? Obviously, these effects are contested, but there are some clear conclusions to draw.
The third section looks at the political ramifications of globalization. Are international and nongovernmental organizations more important actors? What is the future of the nation-state? Can globalization reduce conflict and promote human rights? More generally, how does globalization affect the balance of power in the world? Here, the answers are undoubtedly murkier.
The final section examines normative issues that globalization bring up. First, to what extent is globalization merely an informal economic empire? Second, does globalization imperil our sense of democracy? Third, how does globalization affect ethical principles?
Not bad for ten weeks.

COURSE REQUIREMENTS:
I will expect a number of things from you in this course. First, and more important, this is a course for advanced undergraduates and graduate students. This means that I expect you to have done all of the readings in advance and that you are prepared to discuss them in section with your TAs [NOTE: This does not mean talking for talking's sake, it means making incisive observations that display original thinking]. These sections are for discussing both the readings and lectures, and to provide you with an opportunity to debate the extremely debatable issues before us. I place great importance on this: you will note that a fair percentage of your grade is determined by your class participation. Read all of the assigned materials before class meets. I am aware that this is not the only course you will be taking, and I have really, really tried to keep the number of pages per week down. Scanning the syllabus, you will probably believe this claim to be insincere, but trust me, there is a lot that is being left out.
The globalization phenomenon is always in the news, and I will be dredging up current events from time to time. Keep apprised of current issues regarding globalization. This means you should read a good daily newspaper (the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Financial Times) and/or the Economist. The TAs and myself will occasionally link to a story here on the blog.
One requirement will be for you to write a 5-7 page paper that dissects conflicting or confused media accounts of globalization. The paper should look at a particular dimension of globalization covered in the first half of the class (globalization and inequality, for example), and then examine how that phenomenon is treated in a sample of newspaper or magazine accounts.
Another requirement for this class will be to write an analytical review of a popular book on globalization (click here for the list of possible choices). By popular, I mean a book that has been clearly written for a mass audience rather than for a scholarly audience. Your review should summarize the book’s argument, assess its internal logic, contrast its thesis with the theories of globalization posited in the course, and determine its empirical validity. It should also be clear about what misperceptions, if any, the book would engender.
Finally, there will be a take-home final exam. It is open-book and open-note, and intended to be relatively painless. All told, your grade in this course will be determined as follows:
Class participation 25%
Short paper 15%
Analytical paper 30%
Final exam 30%
