Economics of Disruptive Technologies

Schumpeter's "creative destruction" is the organizing lens here: how waves of technology — now AI and blockchain — reshape growth, labor markets, industries, and the policy questions governments are forced to answer. You'll read across innovation economics and OECD-style digital policy work, take five quizzes to lock in the core frameworks, and develop a term project that applies them to a concrete case, often with an eye toward the Turkish regulatory context. It sits at the intersection of macro, industrial organization, and tech policy, giving you the vocabulary to argue about automation, productivity, and digital transformation in terms an economist would actually defend.
