Global Studies: Risks and Threats in International Relations
Posted 2 years ago by Grenoble Ecole de Management
Understand how risks and threats affect our world
This four-week course offers you the opportunity to investigate why some events have a longer-lasting impact on global affairs than others. You’ll look at which threats affect foreign affairs and global policy, and how those threats can be evaluated.
Dive into the world of global studies and explore how the global political landscape is shaped by cultural divides and anticipated threats.
This course will provide you with insights gleaned from demography, geography and anthropology, which in turn will enable you to make informed predictions about the future of international relations.
Ce cours peut être entièrement suivi en français. Des traductions françaises sont disponibles, les discussions se déroulant sur un forum francophone.
Passer en revue les enjeux mondiaux, évaluer l’impact des clivages culturels et des menaces sécuritaires sur la politique étrangère et internationale.
Assess major issues in geopolitics
Despite periods of relative stability, there are constant challenges within politics and international relations. You’ll review issues within communication, the instability of norms in politics and business, and social uprisings. Consider why people rebel, and the imbalances of power between people and states.
Consider today’s most pressing threats to stability
Worldwide change is only accelerating - environmental, cultural, and military pressures all need new means to meet expanding challenges.
You’ll learn how to assess these risks, looking closely at sustainability challenges such as water depletion and deforestation. You’ll then move on to review the impact of technology on warfare, and whether those changes will ever really spell the end of war.
