1 Carleton University Winter 2009 Department of Political Science PSCI 5808W International Political Economy Tuesdays 11.35am 2.25pm Please confirm location on Carleton Central Instructor: Randall Germain Office: C663 Loeb Phone: x 2771 Office Hours: Tues am and pm randall_germain@carleton.ca Aims and Objectives The main aim of this course is to expose students to significant theoretical developments in the discipline of International Political Economy (IPE). Key objectives include: familiarizing students with leading texts in the discipline, together with appropriate commentaries exploring the particular ways in which theoretical discourse has arisen within IPE The starting point of the course is the belief that the central intellectual task of IPE is to conceptually identify and explain the way in which the global political economy is organized. By taking this course, students will equip themselves for more advanced work in the discipline. Organization and assessment The course is organized as a seminar and meets weekly for three hours. Most classes consist of student-led presentations, followed by a general discussion. Students are expected to read widely for the seminar, participate fully in seminar discussions, and fulfil the written requirements. Each student is expected to lead at least one seminar. Providing seminar leadership includes delivering a short presentation (approximately 15 minutes in length) on the author covered that week, and preparing a short paper (maximum 1000 words or 5 pages in length, word processed and double-spaced) for distribution to other seminar participants ahead of the class. Please note that it is the presenter's responsibility to ensure that students have this paper by the morning of the day on which the seminar is scheduled. This responsibility is usually achieved via attachments. A final version of this paper, no more than 2500 words (or pages, word processed and doublespaced) in length and for assessment, must be handed in to the course instructor at the first seminar following the presentation. This short paper is intended to be a critical

2 2 review of the author and/or book reviewed during the seminar, and should include secondary material where appropriate. The research paper (maximum length: 5000 words, or pages, word processed and double-spaced) is a critical examination of an approved topic chosen in consultation with the course director, and related in some way to the themes of the course. The topic should be finalized by the week prior to Reading Break, and a 500 word or two page outline containing the title, research question, the organization of the paper, an indication of some of the relevant literature, a summary of the argument and a select bibliography, must be submitted by Tuesday February 10 th. The completed paper must be handed to the course instructor no later than Tuesday March 31 st. Please note that late papers will be penalized at a rate of 3% per day including weekends. The departmental dop box cut off time is 4pm. Any assignments submitted after 4pm will be date stamped for the following weekday. Assessment is based on the following: Short paper: 25% Research paper outline: 5% Research paper: 50% Oral participation 20% Oral participation encompasses attendance, quantity and quality of seminar contributions, and includes your presentation. You will be evaluated on the basis of your overall and ongoing contributions rather than on each individual intervention. This is a cumulative assessment, which means that I am assessing also your intellectual growth within the course. Please keep in mind that in order to participate you need to attend, so even though seminar attendance is not compulsory it is necessary if you wish to maximize the oral contribution component of your grade. I am happy to provide feedback on individual student s participation as requested. In order to achieve an effective and successful seminar, the following ground-rules for participating will be adhered to: 1) complete the readings each week and come to seminars prepared to ask and respond to questions 2) enter into debate and discussion using an appropriate tone and language (ie keep the tenor of your comments civil and avoid the use of inappropriate language beginning with letters such as f or s or p ) 3) participate in an orderly fashion, avoiding interjections that interrupt the contributions of others 4) keep interventions focused and relatively timely: please try and keep your interventions within a two minute time limit

3 3 5) remember who is responsible for providing a tolerant and open learning environment: the sovereign authority of the instructor is not subject to challenge Journals and websites Many journals carry articles of concern to students of international political economy. These should be noted and used as necessary: European Journal of International Relations International Journal of Political Economy Review of International Political Economy Global Society International Affairs International Organization International Studies Quarterly New Left Review Review of International Studies World Politics Third World Quarterly International Political Science Review Alternatives Capital and Class Competition and Change Global Governance International Journal Millennium Monthly Review New Political Economy Review of Radical Economics Democracy and Nature World Development World Economy There are also several websites which may be useful to you as research tools.
