Understanding international situations and relationships are complicated. This is an opportunity to gain a basic understanding of what elements drive international cooperation, competition and conflict in the world today. We will review what states care about, what they see as future threats and opportunities, and the tools they use to resolve those challenges. The class will use real world examples to illustrate key points, help develop critical thinking skills, and will have a capstone event on the final day of class to help students integrate their understanding of the complexity of international relations.
