Diplomacy in Practice: the EU & the Worl
Diplomacy in Practice:EU/World
The course will introduce students to the practice of modern diplomacy through case studies of global or regional crises and the EU’s response to them. Students will learn how foreign policy is devised and implemented from the perspective of a professional diplomat. The course will start with an introduction of the EU institutions involved in foreign affairs. Each class will then focus on a specific case study: the EU’s strategic partnerships; its neighborhood policy; the migration crisis; the situation in Ukraine; the conflicts in Syria and Libya; the Middle East peace process; the Iran nuclear agreement; and Brexit. In each case, students will explore the interplay between the various instruments of foreign policy, including crisis management, defense and security, trade, financial aid, humanitarian assistance, and public diplomacy.

Global Economic Governance
This course aims at familiarizing students with major issues surrounding global economic governance, exploring both the issues that are subject to current debates (or have been in the past) as well as the institutional questions involved. “Global economic governance” is understood in a broad sense, and thus includes not only global but also regional frameworks, and both formal institutions as well as informal groupings of countries (such as the G7/8 and the G20) and rules of international transactions that have been left to bilateral agreements or are under the domain of national sovereignty but do have global implications. “Economics” is also understood in a broad sense, to include social and environmental issues. It will start with four general lectures that will place the debates on global governance in relation to those on globalization, and will give a first look at the objectives of international cooperation, the historical evolution of the current governance and typologies of the different rules, organization and governance structures that have been created at varied times. It will then deal in detail with major topics related to the architecture of international cooperation and both formal and informal governance structures. This will include a look at a specific case of the interaction between regional and global governance in finance and trade. It will end with a recapitulation of reform proposals in light of the global economic developments in the 2008-2016 period, and the political economy of global reform.

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.

Global Political Economy
According to a recent article in
The Economist
, 2020 marks “the year when everything changed” and a “turning-point” in human history and the global economy. Indeed, the current era of economic globalization, which until recently appeared inevitable to many observers, now faces numerous challenges—including the disruption of supply chains, the closing of borders, and sharp falls in economic output. However, the global economy was already encountering strong headwinds prior to the emergence of COVID-19 due to factors such as ballooning inequality, the climate crisis, rising nationalist and xenophobic sentiment, and increasing support for protectionism and skepticism of both “free trade” and (global) capitalism itself.
This course centers around analyzing the structure of the contemporary global economy, its political origins and inherently political nature, and how power is exercised therein by actors including states, corporations, and international institutions. As we will highlight throughout the semester, the global economy shapes the lives of people all over the world, including our own.
Specifically, we will discuss the rise and consolidation of today’s neoliberal global order, its “governance,” and the various forms of backlash against it that are currently proliferating. We will also carefully analyze the role of race, class, and gender in the global economy, as well as the persistence of colonial legacies, and the ongoing relevance of North-South and other inequalities. Additionally, we will discuss how issues such as climate change, U.S.-China relations, and the pandemic itself may shape the future trajectory of the global economy.
To shed light on these and related matters, we will critically engage with the contributions of a diverse array of classic and contemporary thinkers who have sought to
theorize
the global economy, and the dynamic interplay between politics and economics, in different ways.
