E/W RELATIONS IN EUR 1945-1991

The seminar, instructed by Csaba BÉKÉS, a leading scholar on the Cold War will examine the origins of the Cold War and the still much debated process of the Sovietization of Eastern Europe. The détente process emerging in the middle of the nineteen-fifties will be presented by a novel approach and the analysis of the different types of international crises during the Cold War will show that some of the most spectacular  crises of the era were in reality not genuine East–West conflicts. Due attention will be paid to NATO and the Warsaw Pact as institutions of foreign policy coordination, as well as to the German question and European security. The last classes will be devoted to the analysis of the radical transformation of East–West relations in the Gorbachev era and to the end of the Cold War.

PSYCHOANALYSIS, IDENTITY, CULT

This graduate seminar aims to introduce students to Freud and Freudian Psychoanalysis and the integration of both in critical theory. The main question the seminar aims to study is the formation of identity in psychoanalysis and how it relates to civilization and culture more generally, whether in its gender, sexual, or national configurations. The influence of Social Darwinism and Developmentalism more generally on Freudian psychoanalysis will be discussed as well as the importance of related temporal concepts deployed in psychoanalysis' insistence on the divide between primitivism and culture. We will discuss a number of major scholarly works engaging Freud's theories on all these questions and their relevance to social and cultural analysis.

ADVOCACY & LEGISLATIVE PROCESS

Notwithstanding the admonition to avoid viewing the making of sausages and legislation, it is highly probable that SIPA graduates will find their careers inextricably linked with government, politics and/or law. It is also highly probable that SIPA graduates will directly or indirectly engage in advocacy designed to either pass or defeat legislation. The dreaded "L" word: Lobbying. Accordingly, it is important to have an understanding of how these disciplines intersect, the process of lawmaking, the role of advocacy and the tools needed to navigate successful outcomes. Unfortunately, the abbreviated nature of the course does not allow for a real time laboratory experience. In the alternative, we will use simulation exercises as learning tools for projects designed to replicate strategic plans for passing legislation. Upon completion of the course, students should expect to gain (1) a thorough, behind the curtain understanding of both the legislative process and the political process as it relates to governing, (2) working knowledge of strategies involved in successfully passing or defeating legislation, and (3) negotiating and strategic planning skills related to advocacy, particularly within the context of nonprofit organizations.

INTRO TO POLIT RISK ANALYSIS

Prerequisites: Knowledge of economics is expected and will be necessary for understanding and participating in classroom discussion.
This course will focus on building a theoretical and empirical foundation to analyze political risk, examine the value of having a structural view for identifying and monitoring political risks, and apply these skills to current, real-world issues. The course will explore how political science theory, complemented by other fields, especially economics and political economy, can serve as a basis to study how politics influences a variety of economic concerns including portfolio investment (financial market trading or asset allocation) and fixed investment (corporates).

MICROECON & POLICY ANALYSIS I

This two-semester course shows students that it is both possible and useful to think about public policy rigorously to see what assumptions work; to understand how formal models operate; to question vagueness and cliches; and to make sophisticated ethical arguments. An important goal of the class is to have students work in groups to apply microeconomic concepts to current public policy issues having to do with urban environmental and earth systems. The course includes problem sets designed to teach core concepts and their application. In the spring semester, the emphasis is on the application of concepts to analyze contemporary policy problems. Some time is also devoted to international trade and regulation, and industrial organization issues. Students not only learn microeconomic concepts, but also how to explain them to decision-makers. Student groups take on specific earth system policy issues, analyze options through the use of microeconomic concepts, and then make oral presentations to the class.

POLITCS & PUBLIC SECTOR REFORM

Prerequisites: Restricted to EPD students
The course emphasizes the politically contentious elements of public management reforms in developing countries, including, inter alia, civil service downsizing, merit and performance based human resource management, and probity and transparency in public financial management practices. By looking at available political analysis of efforts to initiate and implement sustained changes of this type in a range of poor and middle-income countries, the objective is to try to extract general lessons of what goes wrong and right politically. Students will be encouraged to think strategically about how real reforms can be engineered to optimize political as well as technical feasibility. While the focus is on developing contexts, some advanced country examples will also be referenced to illustrate general principles.

This course explores various contemporary strategies to address the critical issues facing our world.  Persistent poverty and a widening gap in wealth, disparities in access to quality education, the changing nature of the workforce, tremendous natural disasters, inequities in health and health care are among the various challenges of our times.  Those responsible for addressing these issues are faced with choices.  They must develop strategies to determine approaches to pursue as well as decide what not to do.  And the landscape of those engaged in attempting to solve seemingly intractable contemporary problems is increasingly diverse.  They are not only governments and nongovernmental organizations, but also large institutions, corporations, and many individuals at all levels.

GLOBAL GOVERNANCE REGIMES

"Global Governance" has become an increasingly common term to capture an enormous diversity of governance regimes and specific public and private agreements. It includes well-established public institutions such as the WTO (World Trade Organization) and the ISO (International Standards Organization). But it also includes private agreements among actors in specialized domains, such as private commercial arbitration --which has become the dominant form for settling cross-border business disputes. The course will cover the full range of these governance modes even if not all specific agreements -- a number so vast it is impossible to cover in a single course.

RESEARCH ETHICS & PHILOSOPHY

This lecture course aims to address philosophical and ethical questions in scientific research.  What are the most important traits of successful scientists whose discoveries have greatly benefited humanity (and led to Nobel Prizes)?  What distinguishes great science from mediocre or pathological "science"?  What are the ethical standards of scientific research?  How do we identify scientific misconduct or fraud?  Why are ethical standards so critical to the integrity of the research enterprise?  The course requires extensive participation of students in the form of discussions and debates.  Grades will be based on participation, writing assignments, and one oral presentation.
