2 Objetivos de la materia

La economıa y la polıtica estan estrechamente relacionadas en la realidad y como tal deben seranalizadas Este curso estudia en campos variados como las instituciones y procesos polıticosinfluyen en la economıa ası como la forma en que la economıa influye en la polıtica El curso seconcentra exclusivamente en aplicaciones empıricas aunque muchas de ellas esten motivadaspor los avances teoricos de la (nueva) economıa polıtica

El objetivo principal es presentar las investigaciones recientes mas significativas sobre la relacionentre economıa y polıtica en un amplio conjunto de topicos

Un objetivo complementario del curso es hacer enfasis en las diferentes estrategias empıricas quecon mucha astucia deben disenar los investigadores en esta rama de la economıa para resolver losenormes problemas de endogeneidad que se enfrentan Ası las aplicaciones empıricas estudiadasvariaran no solo en temas sino en metodologıa incluyendo desde experimentos naturales hastael uso de encuestas especialmente disenadas y los experimentos en laboratorios y de ldquocampordquo

Un tema que sera dejado de lado en este curso sera el de la lsquoeconomıa polıtica del desarrolloacuteEsto porque tıpicamente durante la Escuela Internacional de Verano estos topicos son discuti-dos en el curso ldquoDesarrollo de America Latina en el Largo Plazordquo del Profesor James Robinsony secuaces
