General description

This intensive lecture course examines the role of the United States in world affairs.

Specific focus will be put on the interplay between domestic pressures and external threats.

Language of instruction will be English, but students may write their essays in Finnish.

Evaluation: Course will be assessed on the basis of an essay of ca. 2000-2500 words. The questions for the essay will be provided during the first lecture. The essays should be sent as an email attachment by 6.5. 2011 to: jussi.hanhimaki@uta.fi
