This course will cover the foundational elements necessary for understanding and analyzing modern-day trade policymaking, including the origins and evolution of the modern international trading system, U.S. domestic policy processes, the interaction between business goals and government policy, and the interplay between trade policy and overall U.S. foreign policy objectives.

Time: TR 9:30 - 10:45 AM

You will learn:
• How the international trading system works;
• Why it is under so much pressure right now;
• How U.S. trade policy is made – and why policymakers are suddenly debating the meaning of a “free trade agreement"
• How to write a professional policy memo;
• What it’s like to debate a trade policy issue by role-playing during an in-class exercise simulating a Congressional committee hearing.
