Study the international relations of Asia from a theoretically informed perspective!

Undervisning – höstterminen 2021
Covid-19 fortsätter att påverka våra utbildningar. Undervisning och examination kommer under första hälften av terminen att ske både digitalt och på campus. Från 1 november ligger fler moment på campus – aktuellt schema finns via kurshemsidor och/eller i Canvas.
This course deals with the international relations in East and South-East Asia. We begin the course with an introduction to basic theories about international relations and continue with a short historical overview focusing on the post-war period. We then move on to the following most important regional questions: power rivalry, identity and historical memory, territorial disputes and non-traditional security issues, such as public diplomacy, soft power and environmental and food safety.
The course is based on your active participation, and will enable you to develop your ability to critically assess and analyse theories and use empirical examples from the region.
