Course Description
This course explores the main theoretical strands in the contemporary study of international relations. Students are introduced to several key approaches in the study of international relations, including realism, neorealism, Marxism, liberalism, and interdependence theory and democratic peace theory, and to the central empirical questions these seek to address: Are states the only significant actors in world politics? Is the international system constituted in a way that makes war sometimes inevitable? Is the international conduct of many states guided more by economic objectives than by the quest for military security? Are democracies set never to go to war against one another? Is war partially rooted in human psychology? What are the political consequences of growing social and economic interaction between states and societies?

Course Description
This course introduces European history during the Middle Ages, from the fall of Rome in the 5th century to the Renaissance of the later 14th and 15th centuries. The Middle Ages, once dismissed as a time of stagnation and superstition, is now regarded as an exciting period of ferment, innovation, and creativity. The social, political, and cultural foundations of modern Europe were established in the Middle Ages, and the modern era cannot be understood without an awareness of this formative millennium. But equally, the study of the Middle Ages often means encountering the strange and unfamiliar, and this too is an essential part of being a historian. This course studies the period by focusing on a range of significant events which illustrate some of the most important developments of the period. These include the sack of Rome by barbarians, the influence of the Irish on the conversion of Europe to Christianity, the trial of Joan of Arc, and Columbus's "discovery" of America.

Course Description
This course provides an opportunity for students to engage with central ideas and thinking in gender and feminist theory including gender, power, patriarchy, oppression, and identity. Development of concepts of gender in contemporary gender and social theory that challenge the traditional gender/sex binary are explored. The important relation between theory and practice using the body as a site of interrogations are examined and oppressive social identity systems including sexism, racism, and classism are challenged. Regulation of the body, sexualities, changing body images, issues of bodily integrity, gender-based violence, consent, and agency are explored using key feminist and gender theory texts. To think through core concepts, questions are asked around a range of themes such as sexual reproduction and reproductive justice, care, migration, work, and privilege. Gendered hierarchies linked to material and structural disadvantage are explored in a global context and different patriarchal systems are analyzed that have disadvantaged women and enforced rigid gender roles that confine and restrict both women and men.
