Course content:
The course offers an introduction to the basics and key issues of international and global security. In a first part, major theoretical approaches, actors and concepts are presented and critically discussed. These are then empirically illustrated using current security policy challenges and case studies in international relations.
Further information about the exams:
The examinations include a presentation (not graded) and a term paper at the end of the semester.
Each presentation should last between 10 and 15 minutes. 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” (an English version will follow soon) 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 15 July 2023 and should be sent as a PDF file (including the affidavit) to simon.koschut@zu.de and papers@zu.de.
