The goal of this course is to familiarize students with the basic theories, history, and philosophy of international relations. This course combines theoretical knowledge with the analysis of practical experience in international relations. It covers the leading theories of international relations (realism, liberalism, marxism) along with the key historical topics (World War I, World War II, the Cold War) and modern tendencies (the coronacrisis, the contemporary U.S.-China rivalry, sanctions and trade wars). In addition, the students will be exposed to the main ideas of more sophisticated and modern IR theories such as neorealism, neoliberalism, neomarxism, constructivism, and their major concepts and will be able to conduct their own theoretically based research.
