POLSC 370 War, Peace, and Conflict
A study of war. What is it, who and what starts them, and what ultimately resolves them. The focus will be on World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the War on Terrorism. Discussions will focus both on the historic nature of the war as well as how government operated before, during, and after the conflict. The class will also focus on the politics of war (both in terms of the decisions that go into declaring war but also the potential political fallout during elections).
