グローバル教養特別演習I(13)
Terrorism After World War II
This class examines the rise of terrorism--both as a tactic and rhetorical device--following World War II to the present day. Different definitions of terrorism in political discourse and international law will be discussed. Several case studies will be highlighted, included the Franco-Algerian War, Apartheid in South Africa, Sri Lanka, Northern Ireland, and the rise of Al Qaeda and ISIL. We will study terrorism using anthropology, psychology, political science and history. In addition to understanding the causes and motivations for state and non-state sponsored terrorism, we will investigate responses to terrorism: including examples of transitional justice mechanisms (South Africa and Northern Ireland) and armed intervention (Iraq and Afghanistan). This course will give students a better understanding of the role of terrorism in shaping modern politics across the world. The course will include short readings, and students will conduct a research project on a topic of their choice.
