Nothing remains outside the analytical domain of the study of international relations.
Depending on the context, world politics encompasses all behavior between people. In the age of technological, economic, and ecological change, understanding the political relevance of human actions is necessary as people try to solve problems that increasingly become international. This course is designed to assist students in their understanding of global politics by providing them with a general framework for putting in perspective current developments related to international politics. Students will develop a familiarity with the basic concepts of international relations. The more broad intellectual objective is to assist students in developing an appreciation for the complexity of international issues, including the inter-relationship of domestic and international events.
