Trump! Terrorism! Brexit! Is ISIS still active? Can trust in the United States be restored? What’s happening in Ukraine, the Arctic, or the Congo? And where is China heading? There’s a lot to explore—and this course will help you make sense of it all.
International Politics is designed to help you understand how global events shape the world we live in. No political event happens in isolation. One decision in one country can have ripple effects across the globe—affecting trade, economics, security, and daily life everywhere.
In this course, you will go beyond the headlines. We analyze the forces, actors, and strategies that drive international politics. Together, we explore key issues, ask why events happen, and examine how decisions and actions determine outcomes. Think of it like solving a mystery: Who are the actors? What are their motives? And what are the consequences of their actions?
You will develop skills to understand complex global systems, think critically, and connect local and international events. This course is perfect for curious minds who enjoy asking questions, analyzing situations, and understanding the world from multiple perspectives.
If you are eager to explore global issues, deepen your understanding, and sharpen your analytical skills, International Politics is the course for you.
