Development Economics for Peace
- Economic growth
- Financial development
- Poverty reduction
- Human capital investment
There are many developing countries that have experienced civil war. What, then, are the factors that trigger such conflicts? Needless to say, civil wars are thought to arise from a complex set of causes. Among the many possible causes, this course focuses particularly on economic factors. In this context, at least two economic factors can be identified. One is that the people of the country have low income, and the other is that the country has low economic growth. Why do low income and poverty lead to civil war? Similarly, in what ways does low growth contribute to conflict? This course attempts to explore these questions.
These perspectives also indicate that economic development is an important factor in peacebuilding. So why do poverty, low income, and low growth arise in the first place? And what kind of strategies might be effective in improving these conditions? Although there may not yet be complete answers to these questions, a variety of ideas for improvement have been proposed, and such ideas have been compiled as development economics. This course will introduce knowledge from development economics to provide students with the foundational understanding needed to address these problems.

GDP: A key index of a country
- Value added
- Production approach GDP
In order to improve the economy of a country, we first need to know about the current state of that country’s economy. And there is data that is used all over the world to understand the overall state of each country’s economy. That data is referred to as GDP. In this lecture, we will learn the basic knowledge of what GDP is.

Industrial structural transformation
- Dual sector model
- the Lewis Model
- Demand factor
- Engel’s Law
In less-developed countries, agriculture is the dominant industry. And as the economy develops, the nonagricultural sector (industrial and service sectors) increases its share in the economy. While the existence of this change in industrial structure is well known, one may wonder why such a change occurs. Its mechanism is not deeply understood. This section explains agricultural-nonagricultural industrial structural transformation which is a basic knowledge of economic development.

Issues on Petty-Clark‘s Law & Resource Curse
- Disguised unemployment
- Resource Curse
- Dutch disease
If a developing country had a prominent natural resource (e.g., oil), would it have a positive effect on the country’s economic growth? Or would it have a negative effect? Intuitively, the answer to this question seems obvious. In reality, however, that intuitive answer may not be correct. If so, what effect do natural resources have on economic growth? In this section, we will address this question.
