Course Content
This course aims at studying contemporary scholarship concerning security with a focus on the transformation that took place particularly after the end of the Cold War. Critical approaches to international security and new conceptual tools will be explored. In addition, the wider security agenda which draws attention to new sources of insecurity and new referent objects of security will be critically interrogated.
