Poverty and Development in the International Political Economy is a current-issues and theory based module that allows students to think about the impact of rapid globalisation on our own lives, and the so-called developing world. Do we in the UK think we should put a halt to poverty in other countries? Or, has the relationship between our own government, as well as the governments of the USA, Canada, the EU and Japan for example; and the governments of less developed or previously colonial areas, created a global infrastructure of dependence and inequality that is fraying at the edges? What kind of impact will governments’ policy decisions have on our own everyday lives as well as lives in the global south?
