U.S. Foreign Policy

Catalog description

This course will take a critical look at the implications of the dramatically altered post-9/11 global environment for the conduct of U.S. foreign policy. In particular, students will focus on the strategic choices facing policymakers as well as key policy topics related to military-strategic affairs, economic affairs, and transnational policies such as climate change, trafficking, and global health. Domestic institutions of U.S. foreign policy such as the President and Congress will also be analyzed.
