Major In Global Politics

Course Description

The highly contentious phenomenon of ‘globalization’ calls for a critical approach that addresses conceptual, empirical and policy questions. Among these are the changing nature of political authority and governance, the persistence of poverty, social hierarchy and exclusion, the dilemmas of building and transforming institutions for development and democratization, the tensions of promoting global citizenship and human rights amidst cultural diversity and fragmentation, the contemporary expressions and production of global security/insecurity, and the challenges of pursuing ecological sustainability, gender equality, peace, and popular empowerment. Responding to these requires a perspective that appreciates the interwoven character of the ‘global’ and the ‘local.’ The AB-MA Political Science program seeks to develop “leaders who are globally attuned but also deeply rooted in local needs, practices, and institutions”
