Course Overview

Politics at all levels is fundamentally about power. By combining Politics with War Studies, you will focus on how power is challenged and developed when states come into conflict with one another. You will consider how political institutions and ideas can both maintain social order and drive people to war. With this degree, you will develop advanced skills in political analysis. You will address urgent political questions from local, national, and global perspectives, gaining a deeper understanding of the institutions and processes which drive modern states. You will also explore how wars start and end, the morality of war, and the concept of a €˜just war. You will draw on history, media, American studies, film, literature, and more to deepen your understanding of War and Politics.
