This subject introduces you to the foundations of the discipline of international studies, sometimes called international relations. International studies is about politics on the global scale. We ask questions about power, inequality, and ideas, and how they are changing in the contemporary global political landscape. We explore topics like international theory, intergovernmental organisations, war and conflict, international trade, social movements, gender, climate change, and more.
