IR 5114 Religion and IR Theories
|
The proposed course aims at increasing our understanding of how religion shapes international relations. The main topic of the course is the integration of religious subject matter into conceptual frameworks ranging from realism to liberalism and constructivism. The main question is how religion translates into international politics. Hence, theoretical and empirical views are blended together. The subject matter covers whether religious actors can act as strategic actors, whether religions can have variable impact upon war and the likelihood of war in addition to analyses of international politics through the prism of religion and the interaction between secular and religious forces at global level.
