Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
In light of the recent debates on 'new' wars and 'failing states,' this course aims at providing students with an in-depth understanding of the complex relationships between war, violence, and formation of states from a global, historically informed perspective. The course is organized along a set of thematic and historical sessions that make students familiar with central dimensions and empirical settings of war and state formation throughout the world from the early modern times until the present, as relevant academic literature.
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
Students are expected to attend all sessions and to come prepared for discussion. Active participation is essential. Students must write one paper on one assigned topic and are asked to turn in one lead question for discussion on the week’s readings three days before the respective session. The final grade will be based on the quality of the paper, the discussion question and the participation in the seminar.
Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
By participating in this seminar, students acquire broad knowledge of current research on the relationship between war and state formation processes from a global perspective; they will improve their ability to critically evaluate and apply different discplinary, theoretical and conceptual perspectives employed for the analysis of the war-state formation nexus beyond the limits of the European experience.
Prüfungsstoff
With regards to methodology, particular emphasis will be given to historical comparative analysis.
