Présentation
Prerequisite: basic knowledge of international relations theories and 20th century international relations history.
The course will start by analysing different understandings and dimensions of global governance (actors, institutions, norms and their interlinkages) in a variety of fields. The course will then critically assess possible global governance futures and conclude on possible options to reinforce and relegitimise governance –for example through institutional reforms or regionalisation.
Learning objectives : gain a deeper understanding of global governance processes and institutions; compare different issues areas and assess possible governance outcomes; improve research, reading, analytical and drafting skills as well as oral expression for policy, advocacy and research.
Modalités
This course will guide the students to become self-directed learners in the field. It will be interactive and make use of various media material to stimulate discussions.
For each class, there will be three compulsory readings.
