INAF U4727y Environmental Politics & Policy Management 3 pts. Environmental policies reflect society's decisions about what to do to address environmental problems, formalized through institutions of governance. Now more than ever, it is urgent that we design and carry out environmental policies that are effective at resolving adequately defined problems, and also represent the consensus of those who are governed. This course prepares students professionally and intellectually for this important task. In the course we consider how politics - the negotiation of power - shapes, enables and constrains the formation environmental policies; and how management - the coordination of people and other resources to achieve goals - makes, breaks, or muddles their implementation. To undertake this inquiry, we will look at the role of the law, markets, organizations, and technology in the structuring the interplay among environmental politics, policy, and management. The focus of this course will be U.S. Environmental Politics, Policy, Management and institutions, but we will be looking at global regimes of climate change governance, environmental policy in China, and considering other transnational and global issues as well.

INAF U6016x and y Cost-Benefit Analysis 3 pts. This course aims to provide an introduction to the basic principles of cost-benefit analysis, i.e., the economic appraisal of public investment projects, expenditures, programs, and regulations. I will begin with a relatively brief review of the techniques of financial appraisal (i.e. cash flow analysis) of projects, since similar techniques are used in most cost-benefit analysis exercises. However, while a financial analyst for a private, profit--making entity focuses only on the net cashflows the entity receives from a project, the cost-benefit analyst has to consider a proposal's economic costs and benefits from a societal perspective. This course should be most directly relevant for those who intend to pursue careers in the public sector as analysts/applied economists with governmental agencies, public authorities, multilateral institutions, or research institutes/think-tanks.

INAF U6256y Social Enterprise and Social Entrepreneurship for Development 3 pts. Social Entrepreneurship is about using entrepreneurial skills to craft innovative responses to address social problems. Social Entrepreneurs can develop both for-profit and non-profit ventures that aim to achieve social, environmental, and financial impact on societal problems through their products, services and business practices. Social enterprises also aim at social impact and do not exclude economic wealth creation. Social entrepreneurship and social enterprise is a field that is rapidly emerging around the world, and beginning to have a profound impact on development aid, on the social sector, and on for-profit philanthropy and private sector investment in developing countries. In the developing world, social entrepreneurship and social enterprises help people to recognize development problems as untapped opportunities for creating social impact by harnessing market forces that combine and mobilize resources for replicability and scale. They seek to incite positive social change in various domains, such as mobile health technologies, microfinance, clean energy, education, fair trade, and agriculture SIPA: EPD.

This course examines the determinants of persistent group inequality, with particular emphasis on segregation, stereotypes, and intergenerational transfers of knowledge. We shall also discuss disparities across social groups in crime and incarceration rates, group identity, and the salience of identifying markers. The methods used are those of applied microeconomic theory. Although the main motivation comes from the historical experience of racial inequality in the United States and caste inequality in India, we shall also consider applications to other societies in which inequality and group identity are highly correlated.

INAF U8094y Labor Rights in a Global Economy 3 pts. The present period is marked by increasing cross-border flows of goods, services, and capital; transformations in corporate organization; transitions in political regimes and social systems; and new patterns of labor migration and trafficking. These changes raise many pressing questions about the regulation of workplaces and labor markets from the local to the global levels. Major themes in the seminar include: Which regions and social groups are the winners and losers in the global economy? What is the relationship between labor rights and economic development? Can we design regulatory institutions to enhance democracy, equality, and compliance with labor rights at the domestic, regional and international levels? What is the relationship between public and private enforcement of labor rights and standards? Topics include: comparative models of labor law in North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia; core international labor rights; linkage of labor rights with trading systems; enforcement of cross-border labor rights by U.S. courts and executive officials; multinational corporations and codes of conduct; the "living wage" movement; transnational union organizing; cross-border networks of labor migration and trafficking; and household labor and the informal sector.

INAF U8201y Developing Civic Support for Public Education In this course, we will examine - through readings, class discussion and guest speakers - the role of the "public" in public education, offering a broad perspective of where public education lies in the consciousness of the American body politic and how politics, the media, the non-profit sector, foundations, parents, the unions and the business world perceive and impact public education. Following an examination of the historical development of public engagement and how it has transformed over time, we will discuss what civic involvement looks like today. Who are the participants and what are their roles? And, does civic involvement actually have an impact on school leadership and on students? We will attempt to answer the question: How can the broad civic community most effectively participate in the public school system in a manner that makes a difference on school improvement? Students will also explore their own experiences as members of the public --- incorporating all international students and their experiences --- for insight in answering these questions. Issues will be tackled while ever-mindful of the major contextual variables and outside players and their impact on the relationship between civic support and public education (Country by Country: Race, Class, Ethnicity, Media, Courts, Federal government, Non-Educator Superintendents).

PUAF U4400y Campaign Management in the United States 3 pts. Together we are going to learn how to plan, manage, and execute the major elements of a modern American campaign using skills that can be applied to all levels of the electoral process. Although this is a course focusing on practical competence, empirical political theory and relevant political science will be applied to our work. Guest lecturers, simulations, and additional materials such as videos and handouts will augment the course. When we are done, you will know what you need to do, and where you need to turn, in order to effectively organize an election campaign. The curriculum is ambitious, specialized, and task-specific. This is not a course in political science, but rather a hands-on, intensive training seminar in campaign skills. By May, you will be able to write a campaign plan, structure a fundraising effort, hire and work with consultants, plan a media campaign (both paid and unpaid), research and target a district, structure individual voter contact, use polling data, understand the utility of focus groups, write press releases, conduct advance work on behalf of your candidate, manage crises, hire and fire your staff, and tell your candidate when he or she is wrong. My aim is to make you competent and eminently employable in the modern era of advanced campaign technology. For the purposes of this class, you will design a campaign plan for the 2005 NYC Mayoral race. To make this more interesting (and realistic), you will be provided with information and situations throughout the semester that will require you to plan, anticipate, and adapt your campaign plan to the changing realities inherent to every campaign.

PUAF U6150y "Statistical Races" & Public Policy 3 pts. Most public policies are based on counts of different population groups and their characteristics. The statistical base of policies starts less with counting than by selecting the categories needed for policy making. In the U.S. and many other nations, policies have been designed with reference to the size, distribution, and characteristics of population groups labeled "races." The U.S. constitution, for example, incorporated a racial classification in procedures for allocating congressional seats in the newly established 13 states - initiating a policy debate that stretches from the 18th to the 21st century. This course inquires into the origin of the racial classification adopted by the U.S., and how the categories have accommodated demographic, scientific, and policy shifts across U.S. history, with emphasis on the last half-century. There is also attention to the design and application of racial classification in a select number of other nation-states. The course includes attention to how multiculturalism, diversity agendas, multi-racial identities, color-blind liberalism, and the human genome project have introduced unprecedented instability in today's politics surrounding racial classification.

PUAF U6304y Inequality, Poverty and American Politics 3 pts.Not offered in 2011-2012. This course examines poverty in the U.S. and the role of politics in alleviating and/or reinforcing economic inequality. We begin with a brief review of social science research on contemporary economic inequality and poverty. Next we examine several theoretical, philosophical and comparative approaches to equality and inequality. We then explore the relationships between economic inequality and several aspects of the American political system including political voice, governance and public policy. While drawing primarily upon literature in political science, the course will also draw on the disciplines of economics, sociology and history. The goals of the course are to enable students to analyze how political institutions and political behavior influence anti-poverty policy outcomes; think critically about the role of political institutions and behavior in creating and enabling poverty and equality; and improve your ability to investigate questions of how anti-poverty policies came to be and their effects on inequality.

PUAF U8237y Housing Policy & Equitable Development 1.5 pts. The class is designed to introduce students to housing policy and programs and their impact on communities and cities. Utilizing case studies, lectures, and readings, the class will focus on the problems of housing affordability; the loss, maintenance and/or creation of mixed income housing and communities; and the loss, maintenance and/or creation of segregated housing and geographically segregated communities based on race, ethnicity and/or religion. With New York City as a laboratory for housing policies and programs which have addressed all of these issues in some way over time, the class will compare and discuss other cities which have experienced one or more of these issues and examine how well their policy and program responses successfully addressed them. Other cities to be discussed include New Orleans, Liverpool, Belfast and Leipzig. Students will examine how public policies and programs can both create these problems in cities and also how they can work to resolve them; what tools are most effective; what constraints must be considered; and the impact of unintended consequences.

SIPA U6005x Effective Management in the Public Service 3 pts. This course serves as an introduction to management in government and in the non-profit and private organizations that contract with and/or partner with government to provide public services. Lectures, cases, discussions and group projects focus on an array of management tools that help managers implement public policy and deliver critical services. While many examples come from the instructor's experience in New York City and US state and federal agencies, numerous comparative cases and projects from Asia, Latin America and Europe are used to discover best practices, common challenges and the impact of culture on organization behavior. The course will be valuable to those expecting a career in large, complex organizations, either as a manager or a policy advisor.

SIPA U6320y Budgeting and Financial Management for Government 3 pts. Public sector budgeting in the US (and arguably at a global level) has become an increasingly contentious issue since the 2008 crisis and subsequent recession. This course will introduce students to the field of budgeting and fiscal management in the public sector. We will look at the special challenges of developing a budget within a political environment and the techniques used for management control. Additional topics may include taxes and other revenues, expenditure control, debt management, audits and productivity enhancement. Lectures will also discuss current events related to public sector budgeting on the local and state level. The course seeks to provide students with practical knowledge on budgetary decision-making. Drawing from both theory and case studies, students will acquire practical skills to help them design, implement and assess public sector budgets. The practical nature of the subject requires active participation from students, meaning they will engage in hands-on assignments such as periodical debates, case analyses and a budget cycle simulation. By the end of the semester, students are expected to a) conduct in-depth budgetary analyses, and b) formulate policy recommendations. SIPA: MIA- Financial Management. SIPA: MPA- Financial Management.

INAF U8094y Labor Rights in a Global Economy 3 pts. The present period is marked by increasing cross-border flows of goods, services, and capital; transformations in corporate organization; transitions in political regimes and social systems; and new patterns of labor migration and trafficking.

Major themes in the seminar include: Which regions and social groups are the winners and losers in the global economy? What is the relationship between labor rights and economic development? Can we design regulatory institutions to enhance democracy, equality, and compliance with labor rights at the domestic, regional and international levels? What is the relationship between public and private enforcement of labor rights and standards? Topics include: comparative models of labor law in North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia; core international labor rights; linkage of labor rights with trading systems; enforcement of cross-border labor rights by U.S. courts and executive officials; multinational corporations and codes of conduct; the "living wage" movement; transnational union organizing; cross-border networks of labor migration and trafficking; and household labor and the informal sector.

INAF U8201y Developing Civic Support for Public Education In this course, we will examine - through readings, class discussion and guest speakers - the role of the "public" in public education, offering a broad perspective of where public education lies in the consciousness of the American body politic and how politics, the media, the non-profit sector, foundations, parents, the unions and the business world perceive and impact public education. Following an examination of the historical development of public engagement and how it has transformed over time, we will discuss what civic involvement looks like today. Who are the participants and what are their roles? And, does civic involvement actually have an impact on school leadership and on students? We will attempt to answer the question: How can the broad civic community most effectively participate in the public school system in a manner that makes a difference on school improvement? Students will also explore their own experiences as members of the public --- incorporating all international students and their experiences --- for insight in answering these questions. Issues will be tackled while ever-mindful of the major contextual variables and outside players and their impact on the relationship between civic support and public education (Country by Country: Race, Class, Ethnicity, Media, Courts, Federal government, Non-Educator Superintendents).

PUAF U6150y "Statistical Races" & Public Policy 3 pts. Most public policies are based on counts of different population groups and their characteristics. The statistical base of policies starts less with counting than by selecting the categories needed for policy making. In the U.S. and many other nations, policies have been designed with reference to the size, distribution, and characteristics of population groups labeled "races." The U.S. constitution, for example, incorporated a racial classification in procedures for allocating congressional seats in the newly established 13 states - initiating a policy debate that stretches from the 18th to the 21st century. This course inquires into the origin of the racial classification adopted by the U.S., and how the categories have accommodated demographic, scientific, and policy shifts across U.S. history, with emphasis on the last half-century. There is also attention to the design and application of racial classification in a select number of other nation-states. The course includes attention to how multiculturalism, diversity agendas, multi-racial identities, color-blind liberalism, and the human genome project have introduced unprecedented instability in today's politics surrounding racial classification.

PUAF U6304y Inequality, Poverty and American Politics 3 pts.Not offered in 2011-2012. This course examines poverty in the U.S. and the role of politics in alleviating and/or reinforcing economic inequality. We begin with a brief review of social science research on contemporary economic inequality and poverty. Next we examine several theoretical, philosophical and comparative approaches to equality and inequality. We then explore the relationships between economic inequality and several aspects of the American political system including political voice, governance and public policy. While drawing primarily upon literature in political science, the course will also draw on the disciplines of economics, sociology and history. The goals of the course are to enable students to analyze how political institutions and political behavior influence anti-poverty policy outcomes; think critically about the role of political institutions and behavior in creating and enabling poverty and equality; and improve your ability to investigate questions of how anti-poverty policies came to be and their effects on inequality.

PUAF U6460x and y Benchmarking Education and Skills Development 1.5 pts. Benchmarking is the process of continuously comparing and measuring against other organizations' performance, and analyzing the philosophies, practices, and measures that help an organization improve performance. Benchmarking goes beyond competitive analysis and encourages practitioners to examine organizations in markets that are different from their own. Benchmarking goes beyond quantitative analysis, and practitioners will consider organizational dynamics and qualitative characteristics in performance. Using a public sector-based case study with hands-on group activities, as well as various other examples given by the instructors, this course will teach students the benchmarking process along with the different tools and techniques to be used in implementation.

PUAF U8214y Qualitative Tools for Public Policy Analysis 1.5 pts.Not offered in 2011-2012. The objective of the course is to train SIPA students to the full range of methods for public policy analysis and evaluation. Future policy makers need to be trained not only in quantitative tools for policy analysis, but also in qualitative ones. The two approaches complement each other, and respond to different objectives that will be presented in class. Qualitative reports are widely used in international organizations for a better understanding of the implementation, the reception and the success or failure of public policies. In class, students will be trained to the most used qualitative tools for public policy analysis: interviews, focus group, ethnography, and comparative analysis. Class discussion will rely on case studies in a wide array of fields (health, security, politics) and in diverse area studies. SIPA: USP- Social Policy Track.
PUAF U8237y Housing Policy & Equitable Development 1.5 pts. The class is designed to introduce students to housing policy and programs and their impact on communities and cities. Utilizing case studies, lectures, and readings, the class will focus on the problems of housing affordability; the loss, maintenance and/or creation of mixed income housing and communities; and the loss, maintenance and/or creation of segregated housing and geographically segregated communities based on race, ethnicity and/or religion. With New York City as a laboratory for housing policies and programs which have addressed all of these issues in some way over time, the class will compare and discuss other cities which have experienced one or more of these issues and examine how well their policy and program responses successfully addressed them. Other cities to be discussed include New Orleans, Liverpool, Belfast and Leipzig. Students will examine how public policies and programs can both create these problems in cities and also how they can work to resolve them; what tools are most effective; what constraints must be considered; and the impact of unintended consequences.

Sustainable Development
SDEV U9240y Human Ecology and Sustainable Development 3 pts. This course describes the interactions between physical ecology and economic development, and stresses the two-way interactions between the physical environment and economic development. Ecological constraints (climate, disease ecology, physical resources such as soils and energy sources, topography and transport conditions) significantly shape the patterns of economic development, demography, and wealth and poverty. At the same time, anthropogenic activities (farming, resource depletion, demographic stresses, energy use) change the physical environment. The course aims to give a rigorous treatment of this two-way interaction, building on a rigorous foundation of earth systems processes to understand the ecological bases of human settlement.
