PSCI 22911 - Global Environmental Politics

Course Credit: 1
(ENVS, GLIS)
GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLITICS This course explores the theories and practice of global environmental politics and policy-making. Despite the pressing nature of our contemporary global environmental challenges, effective international cooperation on these issues has often proven difficult to achieve. In this course, we will study the practice of global environmental politics and policy-making. We will begin by exploring the central theories, concepts, and events related to governing the global environment. In the second part of the course, we will apply these foundations to the examination of contemporary challenges such as climate change, pollution, and environmental security. [C, HSS]
