Course title: Political Institutions
Instructor: Prof. Galina Zudenkova, Ph.D.
Offered: Fall Semester Method: Block seminar Course level: Bachelor Course language: English
Prerequisites: Intermediate Microeconomics, Public Economics Examination: seminar presentation and paper
ECTS-Credits: 6
Course description: Any political system operates under a set of rules. The political constitution determines the rules by which policy-makers are elected. The fiscal constitution determines the policy choices from which policy-makers may choose. An important question is how such constitutions should be designed. In this block seminar, we review some work addressing questions in this general area. We begin with a general discussion of alternative electoral systems. We address then the optimal regulation of campaign giving. Finally, we discuss the desirability of restraining government’s ability to tax, spend and borrow via constitutional fiscal restraints.
Students are responsible for one presentation. Students will also have to write a report evaluating the paper they have presented and suggesting extensions as well as further applications. Grades will be based on the seminar presentations and the report.
