IR 347 The International System
Asst. Prof. Nil Seda Şatana
2011-2012- FALL
Some international relations theories would argue that most of the problems and opportunities the world faces today are related to the structure of the modern international system. This course examines the historical and theoretical evolution of the international system, with particular emphasis on the last two centuries. The main objective is to see which ideas and events have shaped the structure of the current system, as well as how the structure has shaped ideas and events. The students are expected to actively participate in the class discussions.
