About this Unit
This unit will examine a series of topical theoretical issues such as claims concerning the end of sovereignty, the emergence of a borderless world, the triumph of liberalism following the end of the Cold War and the so-called 'War on Terrorism' since the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States. Finally it will examine the rise in prominence of so-called 'low politics' issues such as human rights, gender and the environment.
