25 UNIVERSITIES WITH GLOBAL STUDIES PROGRAMS OR PROGRAMS OF SIMILAR INTEREST *This list is not meant to be extensive but to provide you with a starting point when exploring your post-secondary options. What is a Global Studies Major? According to the The College Board: “Global studies majors are “global thinkers” in every sense. Drawing from fields as different as geography, music, political science, and ecology, they look at the connections between nations and peoples and the trends that shape our lives. And global studies majors don’t just think on a large scale. They may study how something like climate change can affect hundreds of nations, but they also consider its effects on their own backyard.” Potential Career Paths: Foreign Service/State Department; International business, including working for a domestic American corporation in their international operations, or working for a corporation abroad; Entrepreneurialism; International law; International development and sustainable development; International non-profit work or activism on environment, human rights, social justice, etc.; Journalism and other communications media; Education, especially teaching and administration at the high school level and above.

Its contributors are self-identiﬁed neoclassical realists who delineate their version of neoclassical realism (NCR), its scope, object of analysis, and theoretical contribution. From the standpoint of NCR, they contribute to and reﬂect on the “end of IR theory” debate. NCR has come under criticism for its supposed lack of theoretical structure and alleged disregard for paradigmatic boundaries. This raises questions as to the na- ture of this (theoretical) beast. Is NCR a midrange, progressive research program? Can it formulate a grand theory informed by metatheoretical assumptions? Is it a reformulation of neorealism or classical realism or an eclectic mix of different paradigms? The forum contributors argue that NCR, in different variants, holds considerable promise to investigate for- eign policy, grand strategy and international politics. They interrogate the interaction of international and domestic politics and consider normative implications as well as the sources and cases of NCR beyond the West. In so Meibauer, Gustav et al.

Opportunities and Challenges for Political Science Research a Roundtable
Exploring International Law: Opportunities and Challenges for Political Science Research A Roundtable Charlotte Ku, Paul F. Diehl, Beth A. Simmons, Dorinda G. Dallmeyer, and Harold K. Jacobson Introduction Charlotte Ku etween 1990 and 1999, only one lead article on international law was published in the American Political Science Review. Moreover, fewer Bthan 10 percent of the articles published in the International Studies Quarterly touched on a subject related to international law. In a decade when questions of restructuring world order dominated, why has international law not figured in the search for answers? The short essays that follow explain why and, in doing so, they may point the way to opportunities for political science research. The essays grew out of a roundtable organized for the annual meeting of the American Political Sci- ence Association in 1999. The roundtable was part of a series that the American Society of International Law organized to address issues arising from teaching or researching international law within the framework of political science and international relations. Why does work in international relations and political science, which focuses on problems of systemwide change, compliance, and effectiveness of norms and regulations, ignore international law? The question seems simple for an international lawyer because these issues are at the heart of scholarship in inter- national law. The question recently has become more compelling as those with © 2001 International Studies Association Published by Blackwell Publishers, 350 Main Street, Malden, MA 02148, USA, and 108 Cowley Road, Oxford OX4 1JF, UK. 4 Ku et al. principal training in law discover the value of the method and broad framework of political science.

International Studies (INTS) 1 INTERNATIONAL STUDIES (INTS) INTS 3665 Comparative State Building (4 Credits) Since the fall of the Berlin Wall, countries in East Central Europe have experienced some twenty-ﬁve years of fascinating political, economic, and social change as they have tried to rebuild themselves, undergone democratization, and transitioned to a free market. But the legacies of the region’s dramatic and often tragic encounters with war and ideology in the 20th and 19th centuries are still shaping how East Central European societies respond to the new horizons following the collapse of the Soviet bloc. This course is designed as an overview and analysis of the processes of state- building in East Central Europe from the eve of imperial independence in the late 19th century to the present day. We will learn about the condition of the states and nations of East Central Europe before WWI and how they embarked on their nation-building projects after the demise of the foreign empires, the Ottoman, the Austro-Hungarian, and the Russian, that had ruled the region for 500 years. We will then discuss the onset of yet another foreign mode of control – communism – and we will learn how communist reality and Soviet hegemony was lived by the people of Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Serbia, East Germany, Romania, and Bulgaria for over forty years. After the initial wave of optimism after independence, the political chaos and economic backwardness of the interwar period 1918-1939; after the resistance, collaboration and murder of the Second World War; after the terror and senselessness of Stalinism; after the exhilaration and disappointment of the Hungarian Revolution in 1956, of the Prague Spring in 1968, and of Solidarity in Poland in 1981; after the gray monotony of decaying communism and the lonely voices of dissidents, we will come to the triumphant revolutions of 1989 and the challenges of the post-communist transition.
