Course Title
Rise of China & World Politics
Course Description
China is rising. With nearly 1.4 billion people, it is the largest country in the world. Its economy has grown precipitously over the last thirty years and, by some measures, is larger than that of the United States. What does this mean for world politics? For the likelihood of war? For the continuance of the US-created liberal world order and issues like human rights and free trade? This course explores these questions, looking through the lens of international relations theories and China's history and current politics. There are no prerequisites; however, POLI-131 is recommended. 4 SH.
