POSC 4000U – International Politics and Policy


This course adopts a comparative perspective and examines the political systems and behaviours across the contemporary world. A highly diverse set of themes and topics will be covered, such as the nature and function of the state, institutions of authoritarianism, processes of economic development and policy development, problems and challenges faced both by highly advanced industrialized countries and developing countries, the legacy of colonialism, political parties, values/ideologies, and finally, the intensifying impact of globalization on politics and policies of the contemporary world. This will all show the international policy making process and allow for comparisons with the Canadian policy process.
