PSC 397 - North-South Relations

Course Units: 1

This course examines the fundamental issues that arise out of the relations between the industrialized countries of the global “North” (e.g., the U.S., Europe, Japan) and the developing countries of the global “South,” with an emphasis on the period from the mid-twentieth century to today. Our main focus is on the development of the South, and the ways in which its relationship with the North has affected its development trajectories and outcomes.
