Race and Security

3 Credits · Level: Graduate

This seminar will foreground race as an influence on an array of phenomena in the study of international security, including the construction of international order, the causes and conduct of war, the nature of imperialism, and the politics of military service. We will also consider how race has affected and continues to affect the ways that we study security. To accomplish these goals, we will examine both theoretical arguments and a wide variety of empirical evidence.
