Institution:

West Virginia State University

Subject:

Description:

This course is, literally, an introduction to international studies. It is not a history, anthropology, political science, or literature course, though it draws from these disciplines. Although the course will "introduce" the student to the world, and at times in ways that may seem quite basic, it is not a coursedesigned to accumulate "facts" about different countries. Rather, the course will focus primarily onways of looking at the world in an investigation of issues that arise as we try to study the world from an international perspective. It is largely a course on who we are as individuals, institutions, groups of peoples and nations; what are our most important concerns; and who defi nes and controls these matters.
