| Course Title: National Minorities in International Politics |
| Start Date: 01/24/2022 End Date: 05/09/2022 |
| Term: Spring Semester 2022 |
| Description: The question of national minorities is one of the central "problems" in international relations, creating friction between and within states, a pretext for separatism, irredentism, and intervention. The course examines the question of national minorities as it relates to wider themes in international relations, such as sovereignty, security, self-determination, and (non)intervention. It explores tensions these concepts create in both theory and practice. Case studies include former Yugoslavia, Georgia, Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan, and Spain. |
