About this badge
Is a war between the United States and China inevitable? Do international institutions have any power over states? Why don't democracies fight wars against one another? Why did the Cold War end? Addressing questions like these each week, this course uses international relations theory, policy analysis, historical case studies, and current events to delve into the most important contemporary debates in international security. Through a combination of lectures, group discussions, and in-class debates, students will engage with critical questions confronting scholars and policymakers alike.
