Course Content
The international interventions in the 19th and 20th centuries are examined to show the formation and redefinition of hegemonic projects as well as emergence of counter-hegemonic projects. This is to provide a better ground to discern continuity and change of the discourses and rhetoric of international interventions from 19th century to today. The international interventions since the end of the Cold War are to be examined taking the following cases samples: Iraq (1990), Bosnia-Herzegovina(OHR), Somalia (UNOSOM), Kosovo (UNMIK), Afghanistan (ISAF), Liberia, Congo, Ethiopia/Eritrea, East Timor, Iraq (2003) and the likelihood. The unilateral and multilateral interventions as well as ´assertive multilateral´ interventions are to be specifically discussed with particular reference to different schools of thoughts.
