Course Description
This seminar explores American foreign policy from within. It studies the actors making it, their purpose, and the constraints they face. US foreign policy making is shaped by both American culture and the peculiarities of American democracy. Conversely, the constraints and the imperatives inherent to the conduct of foreign policy can sometimes endanger democratic principles. The course analyzes the fundamental debates over these issues and considers their evolution over time through in-depth case studies.

Course Description
This course focuses on seeing the different facets of the mobility of the land-sea boundary. In the first part of the course, students learn the definition of the littoral (coastlines) according to different disciplines (biology, geography, and ecology) and analyze a variety of problems that arise in coastal planning and conversation. The second part of the course focuses on coastal forces such as variations of the global sea level, coastal dynamics, and types of coastlines (processes, different forms, reefs). This part of the course includes a variety of exercises aimed at understanding the different scales of time and space regarding coastal systems. In the third part, the issues of coastal mobility are tackled by the analysis of policies and planning techniques (MIACA, MIALR, littoral law, PPRL, defense works, strategies in other countries). Finally, in the fourth period, it is a question of the littoralization and the stakes to come with tourism of the littorals, the retreat of the coastline on the low coasts, the mangrove, the coral reefs, etc.

CHINESE ECONOMY
UCEAP Quarter Units

Course Description
This seminar presents the Chinese economy and its last three decades of evolution from a macroeconomic perspective. The second biggest economy in the world has three specific characteristics of being opaque, not studied often, and offering a rare example of a fast growing non-fully economically liberal capitalist system. Beyond its purely empirical importance as second biggest GDP and largest world growth engine over the past decade, the Chinese economy, through its extraordinary rise, has challenged economics knowledge and the whole international economics order. At the time the Chinese economic model becomes both more assertive and more contested, a better understanding of it appears essential to a comprehensive understanding of today's world, and even more so for tomorrow's.
