Course Description
This seminar presents the Chinese economy and its last three decades of evolution from a macroeconomic perspective. The second biggest economy in the world has three specific characteristics of being opaque, not studied often, and offering a rare example of a fast growing non-fully economically liberal capitalist system. Beyond its purely empirical importance as second biggest GDP and largest world growth engine over the past decade, the Chinese economy, through its extraordinary rise, has challenged economics knowledge and the whole international economics order. At the time the Chinese economic model becomes both more assertive and more contested, a better understanding of it appears essential to a comprehensive understanding of today's world, and even more so for tomorrow's.

Course Description
This course examines how sociology constructs and discusses the category of poverty and how public politics attempts to fight against it. It also discusses social reproduction and lifestyles of those who are seen as poor. The course considers the question of money, as poverty can be initially thought of as a lack of money, but it is not always through this angle that it is seen. The course relies on reading academic texts as well as analyzing written and iconographic documents which present representations of poverty.
