GOVT 52 Russian Foreign Policy

The objective of this course is to help you become a more sophisticated analyst of foreign policy in general and Russian foreign policy in particular.  The course is part of the international relations (IR) concentration in the Government major and gives students the opportunity to explore IR through the lens of another great power’s interaction with the international system.   A background in IR (esp. Gov 5) will enhance your intellectual experience in this course.   The larger aim of the course is to help sharpen your analytical skills, something you may carry with you long after you graduate.
