In the process, we will raise practical questions about how our abstractions relate to action: How can the powerless gain power? What are the most effective strategies for challenging oppression? Do the theoretical traditions we consider inevitably come into conflict? And perhaps most importantly for a philosophy course, what power, if any, does the act of thinking itself have to change the world? | ||

Instructor: Dr. Sally Sharif
Course DescriptionLatin America is one of the most unequal and violent regions in the world. Yet it is also home to important democratic experiments and innovations, including transitions to democracy, transitional justice, and innovative social policies. What are some of the political and eco- nomic problems faced by Latin America? What are the limitations and challenges of its governments in addressing these problems? This course explores some of the most pressing problems faced by Latin American countries over the past century. We will pay special attention to their global determinants and the role of other countries and regions in shaping Latin America. We will explore the historical determinants of development and state capacity, the breakdown of democracy and transitions to democratic regimes. We will also learn about corruption and vote-buying, human rights and violence, mechanisms of transitional justice, the war on drugs, the role of citizen mobilization in pushing for LGBTQ and racial policies, and Latin America’s relationship with Canada and the US.

| A_001 | 2 | In-Person | Lecture | T, Th | 15:30 - 17:00 | Hummel, Callan | Public NotesIssues in Comparative Politics: 2SLGBTQIA+ Politics and Policy In the last four decades, 2SLGBTQIA+ activists around the world have brought rights for sexual and gender minorities into mainstream politics. In many countries, 2SLGBTQIA+ social movements have expanded family, employment, education, health, and anti-discrimination policies to include sexual and gender minorities. Activists work within and outside of national political systems to write legislation, file lawsuits, and put pressure on politicians to enshrine rights within policy. Once enacted, some policies have had widespread and measurable impacts on the well-bring of 2SLGBTQIA+ people while others have not. Simultaneously, countermovements have pushed back against the expansion of 2SLGBTQIA+ rights in most countries and successfully passed anti-2SLGBTQIA+ policy in some places. This class uses political science research, theory, and methods to understand why global 2SLGBTQIA+ movements and rights have expanded over the last decades, when and why governments and activists successfully implement national 2SLGBTQIA+ policies, and the effects of these policies on our communities.

After an introduction to the theoretical literature on the durability and peacefulness of unipolarity, the course will explore its effects on the management of key international security issues (including those with second-order security effects) such as (1) major power relations; (2) horizontal and vertical nuclear proliferation; (3) transnational terrorism, civil wars, and insurgencies; (4) order-defying minor powers; (5) international trade and finance; and (6) the global environment. Finally, the course will inquire whether international politics is reverting back to either bipolarity or multipolarity and explore the possible consequences of such a transition.

After an introduction to the theoretical literature on the durability and peacefulness of unipolarity, the course will explore its effects on the management of key international security issues (including those with second-order security effects) such as (1) major power relations; (2) horizontal and vertical nuclear proliferation; (3) transnational terrorism, civil wars, and insurgencies; (4) order-defying minor powers; (5) international trade and finance; and (6) the global environment. Finally, the course will inquire whether international politics is reverting back to either bipolarity or multipolarity and explore the possible consequences of such a transition.

| D_003 | 2 | In-Person | Lecture | M, W | 14:00 - 15:30 | Prest, Stewart | Public NotesTopics in International Conflict Management: Civil Wars How do civil wars start, and why do they end? What role do competing states play in inciting or supporting insurgent forces in other countries? This course will explore these questions by focusing on the domestic and international elements of intrastate conflict. We will examine the causes and dynamics of civil war to understand why they happen, the processes that affect conflicts, and how conflicts end. Both local and international politics and policies play a role at each stage in a conflict. Throughout the term, we will test our explanations on current and historical civil wars using relevant literature and data. Importantly, we will focus on both the combatants (why does someone join a rebel group?), as well as civilians living in conflict zones (what is rebel governance?). Lastly, we will look at policy options for dealing with intrastate conflict. Contrary to the hopes expressed at the end of the great ideological conflicts of the 20th century, the post-Cold War era has been Through the post-cold war era war has persisted, and civil wars have become the most common form of armed conflict in the world today. The source of much of the violence globally, they constitute a central obstacle to economic, social, and political development in the regions where they occur. It is no coincidence that, in the same period, armed civil conflict has emerged as both one of the most widely—if unevenly—covered phenomena in international media. Such conflicts have implications that stretch well beyond the borders of countries directly affected, even influencing our own domestic politics in important ways. For these and other reasons, armed civil conflict has become one of the most intensively studied phenomena in political science. There is now a diverse and well-developed research agenda focusing on understanding different aspects of armed insurgency, including its prevention, causes, internal dynamics, resolution, recovery, and long-term effects. Scholars in this area employ a variety of methods, ranging from immersive ethnography, to small- and large-n comparative analysis, to formal modelling. This course provides a survey of some of the most significant research on different facets of this research programme, while also exposing students to a range of specific cases of civil conflict management. These cases will provide students with a thorough grounding in both the theoretical and empirical study of conflict, and the link between the two. In terms of organization, each week will focus on a limited set of theories related to a particular dimension of armed conflict management. Most weeks will also include either a focused case study relevant to the topic, or theoretical readings that also have a significant case study component. This approach will help students become more familiar with the comparative approach to political science, and the different ways research on the subject can be undertaken.

The Wagner group in Russia and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in Iran are two prominent examples. In this class, we identify the emergence and role of these groups domestically and internationally and then explore their governance strategies when they transition to becoming state actors in cases of rebel victory or successful coup d'états.

The focus is on the consequences of political discourses, institutions, and power struggles for global ecological change, taking an interdisciplinary approach that does not assume a background in international relations. How, in what ways, and to what extent is global environmental politics making a difference for advancing global sustainability and justice? How and why is this changing over time? What does this suggest for the future? To answer these questions, the course analyzes topics such as the causes and consequences of unsustainable development, the contradictions of technology, the ecological shadows of consumption, the power of environmentalism as a social movement, the social justice consequences of climate change, the effectiveness of international agreements, the rising importance of city-level governance, the eco-business of multinational corporations, and the value of certification and eco-consumerism. The course concludes by assessing the merits of various pathways toward environmental sustainability and social justice.

This is not a law course but a selected introduction to international legal issues of past and present concern. Themes include addressing what is international law and whether it is law, the Melian Dialogue, State Recognition, Kellogg-Briand Pact, the Nuremberg trials, TWAIL, the ICC and the war in Ukraine to provide an understanding of the intersectionality between international law and politics. This course also questions about the origins of modern international criminal law. It takes the trial of Nazi leaders at the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg – with a particular focus on ‘genocide’ (protection of groups) and ‘crimes against humanity’ (protection of individuals) – to explore its implications and to understand its application to the current war in Ukraine.

Nuclear weapons, and nuclear weapons arms control and verification, are subjects that cannot be fully understood or addressed solely through the disciplinary knowledge and methods of the physical and life sciences or the social sciences and humanities. Instead, an interdisciplinary approach is required, which integrates and synthesizes the contributions of the many disciplines engaged in the study of nuclear weapons and arms control efforts. In this course, a special emphasis will be placed on the political issues and debates and the scientific methodologies and verification practices associated with the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) and the Preparatory Commission of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO). Political Science (POLI) 377 and Applied Science (APSC) 377 are cross-listed. Half of the students in the course are from the Faculty of Arts, and half are from the Faculty of Applied Science. Note: Students who completed POLI 369G with Allen Sens in 23W1 cannot take POLI 377 for credit. The course is basically identical. Note: BASc and BSc students should register for the APSC 377 section, not the POLI 377 section.

| 101 | 1 | In-Person | Lecture | W | 14:00 - 17:00 | Jorgenson, Andrew | Public NotesThis course provides an overview of environmental macrosociology. After a brief introduction to the origins of the field, the course will cover topics that are representative of what is current in the area, including bodies of research that are international and global in scope, methodologically rigorous, and with particular attention given to how large-scale social institutions, types of inequality, and organizational forms impact the environment. We will focus on the social dimensions of environmental impacts, the anthropogenic drivers of environmental impacts, and sociological research on solutions to environmental crises. A key takeaway of the course is the necessity in taking a macrostructural approach to the scientific study of socioenvironmental relationships. Attention will also be given to how environmental sociology makes fundamental contributions to interdisciplinary research in environmental studies and sustainability science. |
