SOCIAL INVEST & ECON GROWTH IN E.ASIA BE
In recent years, the growing inequality within countries that have achieved enormous economic and democratic advancements has sparked fascinating debates on its causes, consequences, and ramifications. This course investigates the nexus between economic growth and social investment policies (e.g., education, housing, social assistance, labor market policies, and healthcare) and how a variety of factors, including political actors, processes, and institutions, influence the nature of the relationship. It equips students with the theoretical tools, empirical data, and historical materials necessary to better understand regional trends as well as distinctive domestic outcomes. The East Asian experience is set as the starting point, followed by a close examination of reform efforts in Latin America and Africa. Case studies are utilized to delve deeper into specific issues, such as racial divisions, adverse systemic shocks, and gender inequality.

HISTORY PLAY:MOD TO REN
(Seminar). This seminar will re-examine the methods and aims of early modern theater and performance historiography in light of recent, cross-disciplinary theorizations of the archive. We will consider how the disciplinary parameters of theater historians shaped the early modern stage as an object of knowledge, and what new forms of knowledge might emerge if we look beyond the traditional contours of the field. Through a critical and creative investigation of both traditional and heterodox archives, we will attend in particular to the trans-medial dimensions of plays and other performance events, and their ephemeral material remains. In addition to engaging critically with archival theories and methods, students will work with primary evidence in a range of media, conducting their own revisionist, archival projects, while thinking creatively about how we use archives in our research, writing, pedagogy, and public presentations.

INT'L HUMAN RIGHTS LAW
This course introduces students to international human rights law (IHRL). In what sense are internationally-defined human rights "rights" and in what sense can the instruments which define them be considered "law"? How do we know that a claim is actually a "human right"? What are the relations among international, regional and national institutions in establishing and enforcing (or not) IHRL? Does IHRL represent an encroachment on national sovereignty? Is the future of IHRL regional? What enforcement mechanisms can we use, and who can decide upon their use? Finally, what redress is there for human rights violations, and how effective is it?
Attendance is required in the first class.

SPEC OPER-COUNTERTERRORISM
This course focuses on the use of special operations as an instrument of national strategy. While militaries have traditionally given precedence to conventional forces, since the end of the Second World War special operations forces have assumed an increasingly prominent role in statecraft. Civilian policymakers have been drawn to special operations, like air power, because it promises a less costly alternative to the use of conventional, ground forces. In practice, the effectiveness of special operations has varied with the problem at hand, the organizations involved, and the integration among civilian policy makers, special forces, and conventional military commands. The course opens with a review of the portfolio of roles and missions assigned to special operations forces. We will then narrow our focus to the use of special operations in the context of insurgency, counterinsurgency, and counterterrorism. In the second half of the course, we will examine a number of historical and contemporary cases to gauge the potential and the limits of special operations in various contexts.

NEGOTIATN & CONFLICT RESOLUTN
There are two purposes to this course: 1. to develop your ability to negotiate in a purposeful, principled and effective way; and 2. to teach you how to build consensus and broker wise agreements with others. Negotiation is a social skill, and like all social skills you have to practice it if you want to get better at it. To give you the chance to practice, we'll do a number of simulated negotiations in and out of class. We'll also use lectures, case studies, exercises, games, videos, and demonstrations to help you develop your understanding. As we advance in the course, our focus will shift from simple one-on-one negotiations to more complex ones involving many parties, agents, coalitions, and organizations.
