SS374 is a seminar course designed to challenge cadets to think about why East Asian actors ? states, non-state actors, organizations, and individuals ? do what they do, both within and beyond the region. Students will apply the social scientific method and various social science theories to explain how and why East Asian actors make certain policy choices. Students will explore how pursuits of national interests create competition, cooperation, and conflict across political, economic, and military spectrums. Cadets will integrate and apply knowledge to describe, explain, analyze, or predict international affairs and domestic political developments as well as identify implications and develop feasible policy options. | |||||||||
