the topic of the paper is the following : ” Select a global politics phenomenon and explain it using a least two different theoretical perspectives ” An example of a phenomenon you could focus on is the current Russia – Ukraine war . What can different theories of IR reveal about this phenomenon . Which aspects can they explain and which ones do they miss ? In your references , please use at least 5 readings from the reading list for the current class (I will share) and , overall , include at least 15 references.
The paper is to be 5000-6000 words long (excluding literature and references). Typically, it
will be structured as academic papers usually are: introduction outlining the research question, relevance and
approach; theory / literature review and methodology section; empirical section; conclusion; references.
Harvard style of referencing is fine. Excellent papers will include both a strong theory section and a strong empirical section. Theoretical / conceptual papers without extensive empirical sections will be accepted, but empirical illustrations of theoretical arguments are also welcome.
