| SS307 | INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS | 2020 | 2 | Social Sciences | 3.0 (BS=0.0, ET=0.0, MA=0.0) | ||||
| SCOPE | |||||||||
| The objectives of this course are to provide cadets with an introduction to the fundamental concepts of international relations and the analytical tools necessary to evaluate two fundamental questions: "Why do states do what they do?" and "What causes conflict and cooperation in the international system?" Emphasizing intellectual pluralism, SS307 focuses on the value of applying different theoretical perspectives to historic cases and contemporary events in international affairs. Cadets will employ international relations theory to examine key issues such as the role of power and the use of force in the international system, the international political economy, the role of identity and culture in state behavior, foreign policy decision-making, and the role of morality and ethics in international affairs. | |||||||||

| SCOPE | |||||||||
| The objectives of this course are to provide cadets with an introduction to the fundamental concepts of international politics and the analytical tools necessary to evaluate "why states do what they do." In accomplishing these objectives, SS307 builds upon a cadet's prior academic experience in History, English, Philosophy, Economics, and Political Science. Emphasizing intellectual pluralism, SS307 focuses on the value of self-consciously applying different theoretical perspectives to international events to obtain improved understanding. Cadets examine key issues such as the consequences of anarchy, the need for security, the role of power, the use of force, international trade and markets, alternative political philosophies, foreign policy making, and the influence of culture in international affairs. | |||||||||
