		The main examples of patterns of state intervention that are associated with high levels of economic growth will be South Korea and Brazil, while African materials will be used in the study of the failure cases.

		The course will thus discuss both patterns of state formation in the developing world and the variety of state roles in facilitating economic development, especially economic growth.
