Inhalte:
International Security Studies
The course will offer an introduction to the evolution as well as basic theories and concepts of international security. The field of International Security Studies (ISS) has established itself as one of the most vibrant areas of research in International Relations (IR). In addition to conventional approaches, such as Strategic Studies and Peace and Conflict Studies, students will also be introduced to critical approaches, such as securitization theory, feminist theory, postcolonial and poststructural theory. Each theory will be applied to a specific case study to demonstrate the pros and cons of each approach in explaining and understanding international security challenges.
Weitere Informationen zu den Prüfungsleistungen:
The examinations include a presentation and a term paper at the end of the semester.
Each presentation should last between 10 and 15 minutes. Please select one text from the syllabus. The presentation should consist of three parts: a) a brief summary of the core statement of the text (What is this text about?) b) a brief summary of the core theses (max. 3-4) with explanations and, if necessary, examples for illustration c) a presentation of the conclusions of the text and, if applicable, your own (critical) evaluation. The presentation should be made available to all participants at the beginning of the meeting as a thesis paper (max. 1 page). If desired, a Power Point presentation is possible (but not as a substitute for the thesis paper!).
For the term paper, please follow the “Guidelines for term papers and final theses” which is uploaded on ILIAS. You will need to hand in a one to two pages long written research proposal (“Exposé”) before you start working on your research paper. In addition, a teaching and learning agreement will be required. The final term paper (15pp.) is due no later than 31 January 2024 and should be sent as a PDF file (including the affidavit) to simon.koschut@zu.de and papers@zu.de.
