International Financial Management in Em

Intl Fin Mgmt-Emerging Markets

The aim of this course is to prepare students to deal with financial challenges firms—local and multinationals-- in emerging markets (EMs) face.  EMs are volatile animals.   As exchange rates depreciate, for example, due to a sudden increase in international interest rates, capital budgeting that looked fine under an estimated exchange rate may suddenly become irrelevant. Facing limited access to working capital-- internationally and domestically—firms typically resort to sources of funding other than banks such as retained earnings, aborting plans for firm expansion or much costlier credit from shadow financial sectors.  In turn, those involved in securitization practices in shadow financial markets are vulnerable to sudden stops triggered by any unexpected event, leading to deep financial crisis. Furthermore, bankruptcy laws and regulations in EMs are weak and inexistent in some economies.   Cases in point are the Lehman crisis that started in the US and, more recently, the global COVID-19 war. The former led to a large drop in international trade, as credit in global value chains suddenly became scarce, leaving small suppliers highly indebted and without access to credit.  The COVID-19 war is making evident the fragility of the corporate sector in EMs, and the need for a strong public sector presence. The emphasis in this course is on identifying and managing the EM firm challenges listed above. While reviewing the lessons learned from boom/busts cycles in EMs by means of case studies, the course will discuss sources of firm risks; supply chain challenges; financial sector challenges; FDI pros and cons; and management of risk. All these topics require an understanding of the available international sources of funding and instruments; the impact of shocks; the use of foreign currency forwards, options, and swaps for risk hedging purposes; the determination of an appropriate cost of capital; and non-performing loan resolution strategies.

Budgeting & Financial Management for Gov

Budgeting & Fin Mgmt for Govt

Public sector budgeting in the United States, and perhaps globally, has become increasingly contentious in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis and subsequent recession. This course introduces students to the field of budgeting and fiscal management in the public sector. We will look at the special challenges of developing a budget within a political environment and the techniques used for reporting, accountability and management control. Domestically, the landscape for government budgeting is being tested in unprecedented ways. Fiscal pressures at the federal and state levels have increasingly pushed responsibilities for program funding to the local level. Municipal bankruptcy, once a theoretical and untested concept, has emerged more frequently as a solution despite its long-term consequences. Selected topics will include inter-governmental relationships, taxes and other revenues, expenditure control, audits and productivity enhancement. Lectures will also address current events related to public sector budgeting at all levels. This course seeks to provide students with practical knowledge for budgetary decision-making. Drawing from theory and from case studies, students will acquire practical skills to help them design, implement and assess public sector budgets. The practical nature of the subject requires the students’ active hands-on participation in assignments such as in-class debates, case analyses and a budget cycle simulation. By the end of the semester, conscientious students will be able to conduct in-depth budgetary analyses and to formulate policy recommendations

Energy Decarbonization

Energy systems are critical to human well-being. We use energy to power our homes and businesses, to transport people and goods, and to build our infrastructure. Energy systems are also the primary contributor to increasing greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere, which are causing the climate to change at a rate not seen before by human civilization. The impacts of climate change include more frequent and severe heat waves, droughts, floods and extreme weather events, degraded air quality, changing rainfall patterns, and disrupted ecosystems, all of which pose risks to human health and welfare. Globally, carbon-intensive fossil fuels supply about 80 percent of world’s energy consumption. Addressing the risks of climate change requires transitioning from high-carbon to low-carbon energy systems. This monumental task of energy decarbonization is the topic of this course. The course will provide students with an understanding of the energy decarbonization pathways needed to address the risks of climate change and the economic, scientific, and political barriers that stand in the way. It will dig into the technologies and strategies that can spur decarbonization in each of the major energy sectors. It will highlight the most critical public policy alternatives to reduce emissions effectively and efficiently, including carbon pricing, support for innovation, and energy efficiency programs. And it will describe historical failures, rare successes, and ongoing attempts to achieve energy decarbonization around the world.

Conduct of War

The conduct of war lies at the heart of international security policy. Even if never used, the capacity to conduct war successfully underpins deterrence and much of foreign policy. Creating and wielding this capacity is the ultimate purpose of most security policymakers’ jobs. The equipment, organization, recruitment and training of great power militaries are all shaped by the demands of conducting war. The agencies that field these militaries and shape these policies exist in large part to enable successful conduct in the event of war. A deep understanding of international politics thus requires awareness of the conduct of war and its demands. And the deepest possible knowledge of the theory and practice of modern warfare is among the most important skills a prospective participant in security policy making can bring to the enterprise – a sophisticated understanding of the conduct of war is foundational to almost everything else a security policy professional does. The purpose of this course is to provide a sufficient grounding in this essential material to enable students to participate effectively in the security policymaking process. In particular, the course is designed to equip students to shoulder the duties of an entry-level analyst or civil servant in the many executive branch agencies, legislative offices, think tanks, and international organizations whose duties involve the conduct of war. In the process, the course should give you the underlying intellectual foundations needed to learn more rapidly from your experience once you enter the field, and thus to graduate more quickly to positions of greater responsibility and influence within the field. But this is not a general education liberal arts course – while we will cover a body of important ideas about a major human enterprise, and while the course should sharpen students’ critical thinking skills, our priority will be pre-professional preparation for students who expect to work in the defense policy field after graduation.

Global Governance: Climate Change & Migr

Global Governance: Climate Change & Migration
 introduces students to the key notions, levels, and forms of global governance regimes. The course goes beyond international relations theories to provide a variety of theoretical and practical perspectives on global public policy, multi-level governance and the interlinkages between global-level interventions and regional, national, and local activities and outcomes. Whereas global governance regimes cover a wide range of issues, this course deliberately focuses on three sample areas: climate change, migration/refugees and the link between mobility and climate change. The course is divided into four parts. Part 1 focuses on key institutions, actors and actor constellations, as well as the effectiveness, representativeness, and coherence of multilateral regimes. Students will engage with key questions and analytical categories to approach global governance issues and the role of international law, goal setting, platforms, and frameworks. Part 2 focuses on various aspects of climate change governance, part 3 on migration and refugees and the last part highlights conceptual links between mobility and climate and policy approaches to address them. In addition to critical scholarship on global governance, the course relies on students’ primary analysis of relevant proceedings at the UN, original policy documents, as well as expert testimony from a range of guest speakers, who share their extensive first-hand observations as participants and actors of global governance processes from the United Nations, NGOs, and academia.

US Role In World Affairs II

The examination of America’s global role begun in the fall continues in the coming semester.  Our focus is on the interaction between U.S. foreign policy, the institutions that formulate it, the challenges it responds to, and the changing international system.  Three rubrics will provide the framework for this semester’s study—first, the domestic roots of policy; second, great-power conflicts; third, emergent challenges to which responses are still being formulated. Seminar discussion remains the heart of the course.  Assigned readings are centered on major debates among scholars, practitioners, and journalists about the future of American policy. Only students who are currently registered in INAF U6346 will be allowed to register for INAF U6347, unless otherwise indicated by the professor.

United Nations & Globalization

United Nations and Globalization
 introduces the various ways in which the United Nations affect global governance. Over the last decade, every aspect of global governance has become subjected to review and debate: peacekeeping and peacebuilding, the future of humanitarianism, a new climate change architecture, human rights, a new sustainable development agenda, and the need for a new multilateralism. Part 1 of this course introduces the different actors, entities and platforms through which the UN affects global governance. It creates the conceptual foundations for the role of international organizations in today’s multiplex world. It sheds light on how the UN acts at various levels, in different forms and with a varied set of partners to foster global public goods and global public policy. This includes discussions on the role of international law, goal setting, and frameworks, as well as the interlinkages between global-level interventions and regional, national, and local activities and outcomes. Part 2 applies the conceptual insights to specific issue areas. Discussions on global governance mechanisms in the areas of peace and security, humanitarian action, sustainable development, climate change, human rights, global health and COVID-19 deepen the understanding of the role the UN plays in the broader governance regimes. In addition to critical scholarship on international organizations and global governance, the course relies on students’ analysis of relevant proceedings and debates at the UN, original policy documents, as well as expert testimony from a range of guest speakers, who share their extensive first-hand observations as actors of global governance processes. By these means, 
United Nations and Globalization
 offers insights into the processes, challenges, and impacts of UN activities to make global governance regimes stronger, more effective, and accountable.

EXHIBITION CULTURES

Laurel Kendall and Ming Xue (Co-Instructor). This course is a continuation of Museum Anthropology G6352 (not a prerequisite). Through the study of museum exhibitions, this course explores a series of debates about the representation of culture in museums, the politics of identity, and the significance of objects. We will consider the museum as a contemporary and variable form, as a site for the expression of national, group, and individual identity and as a site of performance and consumption. We will consider how exhibits are developed, what they aim to convey, what makes them effective (or not), and how they sometimes become flashpoints of controversy. Because the work of museums is visual, enacted through the display of material forms, we will also consider the transformation of objects into artifacts and as part of exhibitions, addressing questions of meaning, ownership, value, and magic. We will look at this range of issues from the point of view of practitioners, critics, and audiences. G6365 works in tandem with the exhibition project that will be developed in “Exhibition Practice in Global Culture” to produce a small exhibit.   This year we will use a Tibetan Thangka painting (AMNH #70.3/8090) as the focal point for an exhibit that explores contemporary Thangkas and those who paint them. The instructor’s permission is required.

Women's Leadership: Impact of Policy

Despite gains in recent years, gender disparities in leadership roles – particularly in the corporate and government sectors – remain significant. This 7-week course will explore policies within organizations, as well as governmental policies, designed to address gender disparities in leadership roles, examining questions such as: What are the goals such policies are/should be seeking to achieve? What are the best approaches – e.g. gender-focused vs. more broadly crafted policies? Which approaches are/are not working? What are the unintended consequences of policies designed for this purpose? How do we consider debates in popular culture (from Sandberg to Slaughter) in the context of organizational and governmental policymaking and use them to inform policymaking? What are the limitations on what policy can achieve? The course will begin by briefly exploring historical and current gender disparities in leadership roles and the diverse reasons behind them, examining the roles of women, men, culture and policy. We will explore the potential impact policy can have, identifying and recognizing limitations and challenges. Finally, we will focus the bulk of our time on policy approaches tried by governments and organizations (with a focus on corporations, as well as academia and non-profits) to attempt to address leadership gender disparities, exploring the questions above. The course will include accomplished women leaders from multiple sectors as guest speakers, and active student participation, including presentation of case studies, will be required.

LGBT Rights Internationally

On September 24, 2014, a hotly contested resolution passed the UN Human Rights Council condemning discrimination and violence on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. The protracted fight for the resolution demonstrates how lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights are one of the most controversial issues in international human rights, culture, law and public policy today. This course will explore how LGBT rights impact mainstream debates, such as bilateral relations and good governance, while also teaching students to understand the particular challenges of fulfilling LGBT rights, such as access to legal recognition for LGBT partnerships and transgender identities. This course offers students an in-depth discussion about the challenges and opportunities of working on LGBT rights at the international level, surveys debates within the field, and equips students to competently address LGBT rights as they manifest across a range of academic and professional interests. Breaking news and contemporary debates will be integrated into the course work.

Technology, National Security & the Citi

Tech, Natl Security & Citizen

While digital technology gives governments powerful new ways to protect their citizens, it also creates powerful opportunities for abuse. To complicate matters, governments arent the only ones with access to these tools: technology also empowers individuals, activist groups, and non-state actors in ways that can either enhance or threaten the security of nations. This course will explore these changes, examining how digital technology is transforming the national security landscape, altering roles and power relationships for governments, citizens, and social movements. Specifically, this class will examine: NATIONAL SECURITY TECHNOLOGIES: Categories and specific tools in use for citizen engagement, surveillance, infrastructure control, and defense DEMOCRATIC - AUTOCRATIC GOVERNMENTS USE OF TOOLS: How governments, both democratic and autocratic, deploy these technologies in national security efforts, and its consequences on the rights of individuals and the broader social order CITIZENS, SOCIAL MOVEMENTS - NON-STATE ACTORS USE OF TOOLS: How citizens, social movements, and non-state actors wield similar tools to enhance, counterbalance, or undermine government security efforts REDEFINING POWER: How new technologies affect, alter, undermine, or enhance existing power structures and bolster or diminish the influence of citizens, organizations, and social groups on governments Course material will be comprised of theoretical readings on state security responsibilities and citizens rights, case studies of effective and counterproductive tactics, and present-day examples of the phenomena.

Dynamics of Cyber Conflict

This class examines the dynamics of cyber conflict. We will focus less on the technology of cyberspace than the national security threats, challenges, and policy responses including lessons from history and other kinds of conflict. After taking this course, you will understand about the Internet and Internet-based attacks; how cyber conflicts unfold at the tactical and strategic levels; how cyber conflicts and cyber power are different or similar to conflict and power in other domains; the evolution of US cyber policies and organizations; as well as legal issues and the policies and organizations of other nations. The centerpiece of the course is an exercise to reinforce the fundamentals of national security response to a major cyber incident. Accordingly, you will demonstrate the ability to formulate policy recommendations in the face of the uncertainties of an unfolding cyber conflict.

Terrorism & Counterterrorism

This course examines the origins and evolution of modern terrorism, challenges posed by terrorist groups to states and to the international system, and strategies employed to confront and combat terrorism. We assess a wide variety of terrorist organizations, and explore the psychological, socioeconomic, political, and religious causes of terrorist violence past and present. We also analyze the strengths and weaknesses of various counterterrorism strategies, from the point of view of efficacy as well as ethics, and look into ways in which the new threat of global terrorism might impact the healthy functioning of democratic states. The course is divided into two parts. Part I focuses on the terrorist threat, including the nature, roots, objectives, tactics, and organization of terrorism and terrorist groups. Part II addresses the issue of counterterrorism, including recent American efforts to combat terrorism, the strengths and weaknesses of counterterrorist tools and instruments, the issue of civil liberties and democratic values in confronting terrorism, and international strategies and tactics.

Conflict Resolution

This course introduces the study and practice of conflict resolution, offering students a broad conceptual framework for more specific strands of study offered by CICR. It also aims to show how ideas about conflict resolution can cast light on individual conflicts and peace initiatives. The majority of classes focus on thematic issues and debates, but these are interspersed with classes concentrating on individual conflict situations, to allow students to link theory and practice. Students will be tested on both their grasp of the main themes of the course and their application to specific situations.
