POLT 320 - Imperialism and Global War


Semester Offered: First Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 credits
Attribute: 4SS

Who has the right to kill? To make people live or suffer? This course asks how legacies of imperialism and colonialism shape global war in the contemporary world, from slavery and imperial trade to perpetual war and the rise of neoliberalism. Rather than treat racialized, queer and otherwise minoritized bodies as the afterthought of global security, this course examines the structured social relations that produce some lives as worthy of protection, and others as dispensable.

Enrollment Limit: 19
Instructor: C. Chua

Consent of the Instructor Required: Yes
