Outline and Purpose of the Course	[Applied International Political Economy and International Relations (1)] The modern international community is seeking new solutions to various policy-related issues amid the complex situation in which international politics and international economy intermingle. Under these circumstances, the academic field called "international political economics" draws attention.
