SIS-701:001 International Politics Proseminar

Office Hours: Tuesdays 1:30-3:00; Wednesdays 6:30-7:30
This course is designed to prepare students for their
comprehensive examinations, and to ensure
that all students are familiar with a core minimum of the
theoretical and meta-theoretical
literature in the field of international relations. The course
will allow students to develop both
breadth and depth of appreciation of the major theoretical
issues of the field, and will provide an
opportunity and incentive for the synthesis of each students
knowledge of international relations.
While this course assumes prior knowledge of the international
relations literature, some of the
readings are specifically intended to provide overviews. The
(short) recommended reading list
should be consulted as much as possible, both as further
readings, and for preparation of papers.
The thrust of this course is to understand the most important
approaches, theories, and methods
within the discipline of international relations. These latter,
however, are extremely
controversial, and accordingly, a substantial part of our
proceedings would be to understand the
relevant debates.
