Overview
Key facts
London School of Economics and Political Science's Industrial Policy - Leading the Green and Digital Transitions course examines, under this prism, novel industrial policy initiatives in Europe and beyond, in response to the green and digital transitions and the supply chain disruptions since the Covid lockdowns.
Following a long period of deregulation and market liberalisation, the recent crises (COVID, supply chain disruptions) and continuing global challenges (automation, climate, energy transition) have led to the realisation that markets and businesses need to the assistance of the state to meet their social and economic goals. In this course, we examine analytically and empirically the industrial and related policies to achieve these aims in the European context. Combining an accessible treatment of theory with an applied focus, the course offers an excellent introduction to some of the key policy questions on the management of economic growth today. We will discuss the main frameworks for industrial policy, compare and evaluate recent strategies in the EU and other advanced capitalist democracies, and the articulation of industrial policies with other policy areas.Programme Structure
