SUMMARY:Terrorism and Weapons of Mass Destruction
DESCRIPTION:Gregory D. Koblentz\nGeorge Mason University\nSpring 2021\nSince September 11\, 2001\, the United States has viewed terrorist acquisition and use of chemical\, biological\, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) weapons as one of the gravest threats to national security. This course provides an in-depth understanding of the history of CBRN terrorism\, the current challenges posed by this threat\, and the range of national and international policy tools available to address this threat. The goal of the course is to familiarize students with the influence of strategy\, technology\, organization\, psychology\, ideology\, and economics on the threat of CBRN terrorism and the strategies for managing this danger. \n\nLevel: Postgraduate\nDownload Syllabus

SUMMARY:Security in a Nuclear-Armed World
DESCRIPTION:Benoît Pelopidas and Kjølv Egeland\nSciences Po\nSpring 2021\nThis course will introduce the main debates about nuclear weapons and their effects on international security. Every session will be devoted to a crucial problem of the ‘nuclear age’ which is still relevant to contemporary security policymaking. How do we know that something “is nuclear” or not? Is there a “nuclear revolution” and if so\, what does it mean? How do nuclear weapons affect military strategy? How to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons? How can we explain the nuclear arms race? What is at stake in the debate about nuclear disarmament and the nuclear ban treaty? Why have nuclear weapons not been used in anger since 1945? What are the political implications of referring to “Weapons of Mass Destruction” (WMD)? These questions will be introduced through the study of concepts as well as historical events and their political operationalization. \n\nLevel: Postgraduate\nDownload Syllabus

SUMMARY:Perspectives on Arms control\, Disarmament and Non-proliferation
DESCRIPTION:Jens Bartsch\nGoethe University Frankfurt\nSpring 2021\nThis seminar will introduce students to fundamental issues and enduring controversies of arms control\, with a special focus on nuclear weapons as the paradigmatic case of arms control. It will explore cross connections between the development of arms control and International Relations theory as well as recent challenges posed by technological and political developments\, including controversies over “nuclear justice” or the geopolitical implications of arms control negotiations. At the end of the seminar\, students should have a solid base of knowledge about key arms control regimes\, both historical and current\, in addition to insights into the practical activities of arms control professionals and the debates surrounding arms control within IR. \n\nLevel: Undergraduate\nDownload Syllabus

SUMMARY:International Politics and the Nuclear Age
DESCRIPTION:Jan Ruzicka\nAberystwyth University\nWinter 2019/2020\nThe module examines key historical developments of the nuclear age. It looks at various factors which have shaped this period (the end of the World War II; the onset\, conduct and the end of the Cold War; the post-Cold War period). It shows how nuclear weapons and concerns about their spread have informed state policies\, led to the formation of international agreements and regimes\, and shaped the involvement of non-state actors in international politics. The module also highlights the normative dilemmas presented by the onset of the nuclear age. It will focus on state policies\, institutional mechanisms\, economic and societal constraints\, and ideas influencing the humanity’s life with the bomb. \n\nLevel: Undergraduate\nDownload Syllabus

SUMMARY:Arms Control and Nonproliferation: Contemporary Challenges
DESCRIPTION:Richard Cupitt\nGeorge Mason University\nFall 2019\nThe United States and many other countries have identified the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction as the gravest threat to international peace and national security\, but the international efforts to slow\, halt\, or reverse the spread of these weapons and their means of delivery have been under intense strain in recent years. The course explores these nonproliferation regimes and the many challenges they face. \n\nLevel: Postgraduate\nDownload Syllabus

SUMMARY:Disarmament\, Arms Control\, and Nonproliferation
DESCRIPTION:Trevor Findlay\nCarleton University\nFall 2014\nThe course is intended to impart a comprehensive academic understanding of the origins\, theory and practice of disarmament\, arms control and nonproliferation. Students will explore the intellectual\, political\, strategic and other underpinnings of these approaches to conflict prevention and mitigation and how they have evolved\, particularly since the end of the Cold War. There will be an emphasis on nuclear weapons\, but chemical and biological weapons\, conventional weapons and space weapons will also be considered. \n\nLevel: Postgraduate\nDownload Syllabus
