| Course Objectives: | Security has been an indispensable dimension of international relations and world politics. Since the end of the Cold War era there has been a remarkable change in security studies, from issues and actors to theories of security. The course aims to offer new directions in the study of ‘security’, to provide a broad survey of some of the theoretical and contemporary issues in global and regional security from its Cold War past to its post-Cold War present and opening up alternative ways of thinking about the future. This course will thus enable students to have a complete worldview about international politics. |

Enabling students to have a complete worldview about international politics. |
