Key Concepts in International Relations (at University of Tuebingen, Germany)

Beskrivelse

International Relations as a discipline operates with a number of key analytical concepts which assist us in explaining, describing and problematising international relations. These concepts include, for example, anarchy, discourse, power, globalisation, empire or sovereignty. In this seminar, we want to explore some of these concepts further. Where do they come from? What are their
contested meanings? How do different theoretical approaches use them? How have they been used in empirical analyses?
