CMR 535 - Violence Studies Credits: 3
The module in Violence Studies will introduce students to the various social, political, and economic conditions that have given rise to radical response. We will closely examine small rebel bands, (commonly referred to as “guerrilla” movements), and “terrorist” organizations in both ‘Third World’ countries and Industrialized nations. We are often interchanging the term ‘revolutionaries” with ‘terrorist” given the strategies utilized to counter the possible international threat. To this end, we will also examine ways in which revolutions upset and effect alliances in the international system. That is – examining the link between revolutions and international relations.
