WELCOME! This course is structured for students interested in pursuing a university education. The class features many characteristics of an introductory University level Political Science course: weekly readings, lectures, seminars, tutorials, debates, mid-term and final examinations, and a reading week. This method of program delivery is an attempt to facilitate the transition from secondary education to post-secondary education. In recent years world politics has been shaken by profound changes. Most significant is the disintegration of the Soviet Union, one of the world's two “superpowers.” Many world leaders and scholars have declared a new world order, and as changes in East Europe, the Middle East, South Africa, and East Asia show, the end of the Cold War has had broad consequences. Yet, certain features of international relations remain constant: wars, trade disputes, human rights violations, and disparities in wealth are still with us. CPW4U provides a framework for understanding these changes and continuities by giving a broad introduction to world politics. The course helps students understand different theoretical approaches and analyzes such basic concepts as power, national interests, and international institutions. Among the topics discussed are the nature of the international system, causes of conflict, conditions for international cooperation, diplomacy and decision making, and the role of international law and organization in controlling conflict. All topics will simultaneously be related to the Canadian perspective. Email: Mr. Mark Melnyk melnyk@hotmail.com www.markvillehistory.com |
