Comments
More and more, events and trends on the inter- and transnational stages are confusing. As one by now famous populist never tired of asking: “What is going on?”
This seminar aims to illuminate the emerging global landscapes by introducing students to the main concepts, theories and issues of IR and global politics. Regarding concepts and theories, diverse and competing assumptions and interpretations like positivism, constructivism, realism, institutionalism, liberalism, and others will be presented, debated, and applied. The participants will be organized in permanent working groups, each focusing on one of six regional problems and conflicts, like in China, Eastern Europe/Russia, MENA, the USA and the EU. A clear focus will be put on non-state-centred concepts like flows, networks, global cities etc. – and the consequences of non-polarity. In addition, topics such as security, culture, and populism will inform sections of the course.
