  • Objectives
    We live in a world that is increasingly connected. Never before have we had so much knowledge and information at our disposal about people and issues around the globe. Global Politics is a field of study that examines these issues -- and more. It applies knowledge and theoretical principles to the analysis of major concerns in the world today, including economic relations, and the gap between rich and poor; democracy, and its economic and political benefits; human rights and the different emphasis placed on rights by different societies; war and peace; ethnic conflict; the environment; and power.
