An introduction to the
theory and practice of International Relations for the professional degree
students in the MA in International Relations Program. A survey and critique
of approaches to understanding international relations from the perspective
of the practitioner who must deal with problems of individual choice, small
groups, and organizational factors in the conduct of International Relations.
A series of case studies from the Pew Case Study Center of the Institute for
the Study of Diplomacy at Georgetown University is used to provide first-hand
experience in policy decision-making and international negotiation. In
addition, students have the opportunity to participate in e-group discussions
and work in small groups to construct Web sites on topics of their choosing.
The course also provides an overview of leading I.R. theories, such as
realism and neo-realism, pluralism, globalism, feminism, and post-modern
perspectives. Offered in Fall 2001 by Matt Bonham.
