For a long time, the study of grand strategy has by and large been a vocation for and in the West, featuring the rest on the receiving end. With a focus on anti-colonialism, this course aims to navigate the concept of grand strategy in non-Western milieus. We will also examine how the grand strategies that liberation movements adopt may influence the political systems that emerge in those countries after they gain independence: from India/Pakistan, where despite their military capacity, the nationalists pursued a pacifist path to independence, to Vietnam, where the nationalists sought to cooperate with the United States in order to avoid the restoration of French colonialism only to find themselves fighting the Americans, to African independence movements (from Algeria to South Africa and from Eritrea to Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde), whose emergence was founded on the principle of forcefully doing away with their colonial subjugation. 1.00 units, Seminar

Students who wish to acquire significant proficiency should therefore plan to take both 101 and 102 in sequence. Four hours of class work, plus one required drill hour.
