GEOPOLITICS OF ENERGY AND THE ENVIRONMENT
(objectives)
The course focuses on the intersection of international politics, energy security, and the environment. Through an interdisciplinary approach that combines history, theory of international relations, and area studies, the course wants to highlight the relevance of energy issues for the evolution of the international system, by studying how in the past they caused wars, alliances, and the constant realignment of the foreign policies of the great powers. At the same time, the course will investigate how in the future the search for energy security must be reconciled with the growing challenges posed by climate change and environmental protection. The expertise provided by the course is particularly useful for operating in such fields as resources management and environmental issues.
