Overview

The Master in Analytical Political Economy program at Duke University is a joint master’s program of the Departments of Economics and Political Science, necessitated by a growing interest in political economy and political science among young economists. These fields are converging, and policy economics—particularly macroeconomic and international trade policy—increasingly includes a strong political component.

Political economy examines the reciprocal relationships between politics and markets, both within and among countries, using a variety of analytical tools, including those of economics.

Its concerns include:

interactions among economic and political development;
cooperation and conflict among nations, groups, and individuals;
the distribution of material resources and political power;
the effects of political actors and institutions on economic outcomes;
the causes and consequences of technological and structural change, growth, and globalization;
regulation.
