POLT 320 - Imperialism and Global War

FC SSCI
4 credits
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.
