INRL 258State, Society, and Market in the Middle East and North Africa This course explores the complex and
shifting relationships between state and society in the late colonial and post-colonial Middle East and North Africa. Paying particular attention to questions of state-building and development, it explores the ways in which state legit- imacy is variously supported and challenged by alternative sites of authority in society. Course topics will address a variety of secular and religious movements, the role of state and anti-state violence, and the impact of economic and cultural globalization, among others. (Philbrick Yadav, offered alternate years) INRL 259 African Politics The course traces the evolution of the African state from its colonial creation to its mod- ern day “crisis” through an examination of how political, economic and social considerations have shaped and transformed African politics. The first section of the course examines the historical creation of contemporary African polities from the era of European colonization. In the second section, attention is paid to the creative solutions that African societies have employed as a response to both unique and universal problems of governance. (Dunn, offered alternate years) INRL 260 Human Rights and International Law Where do “human rights” come from and how are they best defend- ed within and outside of institutions? This course will consider the normative bases on which people claim human rights and will examine how and why international legal institutions have (and have not) created, expanded, and/or defended these rights. Historically, the course will locate legal institutions as central to the politics of the mid-20th century post-war settlement and will ask how these politics have related to the global movement for decolonization. The course will address the role of human rights in the rise and institutionalization of a “liberal international order,” and will likewise ask why this order has so consistently failed to advance or protect human rights on a global scale. (Offered alternate years) INRL 275 International Environmental Insecurity and Global Climate Change This course will focus on three major sources of international environmental insecurity: mass extinction and the loss of biodiversity; over-population and resource scarcity; and global climate change. The course will ask which actors and factors have been involved in the historical development of these crises. The course will also ask what options are there for global solutions, investi- gating the role of diplomacy, policies, international institutions and laws, and civic activism. How can transnational cooperation be realized around these three crises? What are the actors and factors involved in possible solutions? What challenges and opportunities exist? What are the normative bases upon which transnational cooperation can be achieved? (Dunn, offered alternate years)

INRL 371Qualitative and Interpretative Research Methods This course maps major changes in the way social
scientists have come to understand the possibilities, limits, and obligations of research in the field of International Relations. It includes discussion of epistemology and method and introduces specific research techniques common- ly used in qualitative and interpretive approaches to the study of international relations and comparative politics. The goal is to engage debates in philosophy of social science in order to help students defend research projects that they design and is designed to prepare students for INRL 400 or an alternative capstone experience in the International Relations major. (Philbrick Yadav, offered alternate years) INRL 380 Theories of International Relations Why do states act the way they do? How do we explain conflict and cooperation between states? What about non-state actors, from terrorist networks and drug cartels to international organizations? How have social forces such as gender and race impacted the development of world politics? The ob- jective of this course is to expose students to a wide range of theories and approaches to the study of international relations. Students will examine how the lens we use to view the world shapes our understanding of the world, its problems and possible solutions. (Dunn, offered annually) INRL 387 Neo-Liberalism This course investigates and problematizes the war of ideas about the proper relationship between states and markets that shaped economic arrangements within and between states in the last century. Specifically, we will examine the running battles between Neo-Liberal thought collective, known as the Mont Pelerin Society, and their critics (e.g., Keynesians, Communists, Corporatists). The course will deal with country-level case studies from Asia that illustrate these policy debates. (Yadav, offered alternate years) INRL 401 Capstone Experience Designed as the culminating experience for students in the International Relations major, students will bring insights and skill developed over the course of their program to bear on research that HWS.EDU/CATALOGUE 281 2023 - 2024 CATALOGUE
