Abstract
In this course we will inquire together into what forces shaped the world you were born into, and what changes over the last couple of decades shaped the world we live in today. I have designed the course around two books: one historical, and one contemporary. The assignments, class discussions, and world politics textbook will help you analyze these works and apply basic knowledge of international relations to the events, issues, and scenarios described in them. This course is designed to serve as a foundation for all other IS courses. What you learn will also enhance your studies of many other fields, including anthropology, history, global health, environmental studies, and economics. By the end of the course you will be familiar with the various approaches to thinking about international politics, basic concepts like power and globalization, and areas such as international trade and institutions, among other things.
