|---|---|
| THE TEACHING AIMS TO PROVIDE THE NECESSARY TOOLS TO UNDERSTAND THE EVOLUTION OF POLITICAL-DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS FROM 1870 TO THE PRESENT. THE GOAL IS TO DEVELOP IN THE STUDENT THE ABILITY TO CRITICALLY ANALYZE BOTH THE HISTORY OF THE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS FROM THE DECLINE OF THE POST-NAPOLEONIC SYSTEM TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER ESTABLISHED AFTER 1989, AND THE RELATED HISTORIOGRAPHY ON THE SUBJECT. IN THE LIGHT OF THE ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE, THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO DISTINGUISH AND INTERPRET NOT ONLY THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM AS THEY HAVE BEEN CONFIGURED FROM THE POST-NAPOLEONIC ERA ONWARDS, BUT ALSO THE CHANGES IN RELATIONS BETWEEN THE STATES ON A WORLD SCALE BEFORE AND AFTER. AFTER THE COLLAPSE OF THE BIPOLAR ORDER ESTABLISHED WITH THE COLD WAR. |
