This is a survey course designed to introduce students to Southeast Asia -- defined as the ten member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) plus Australia and New Zealand. Southeast Asia is an integral part of the broader region of East Asia and a geographic bridge to the Indian subcontinent (South Asia). Southeast Asia has been one of the great success stories in the saga of modernization and development of post-colonial Afro-Asia over the last six decades. Its resulting economic importance is matched by its strategic significance given the presence of imbedded jihadist networks and the emergence of China as a regional great power and aspirant superpower. Nevertheless, the region has been largely overlooked by senior foreign policy and defense officials in Washington. This course will equip students to fill that void by examining the region from the perspective of national security strategy -- broadly understood in its multiple dimensions. Students will be challenged to formulate some element of a viable U.S. national security strategy for the region.

This course explores recent attempts to reintroduce historical sociology into international relations theory. Rather than relying on scientific methodologies for producing knowledge about the international historical sociologists have questioned the methodological assumptions that ground theorizations of global politics. In this course we will trace the impact of historical sociology upon international theory through the works of Mann, Tilly, Skocpol, and Wallerstein. We will also assess the potential impacts of “third wave” historical sociology for international relations theory.

For early modern philosophers writing in the shadow of the wars of religion, religious enthusiasm was an intensely political problem. In this course we will examine the writings of Baruch Spinoza, Blaise Pascal, and John Locke, and their ways of addressing faith-based claims of authority in order to secure the concept of the modern state. It is hoped that these readings and discussions will allow students to contextualize contemporary debates over the role of religion in public life.
