"International Cooperation in Western and Eastern Europe".
The International Summer University will take place from July 31st through

The language of instruction will be English.
This class will be taught by Professor Dr. Klaus Segbers. He is Professor
for Political Science and East European Politics at Osteuropa-Institut and
Department of Political Science at Freie Universitaet Berlin. His research
interest are: transformations in the former Soviet Union, migration and
international politics, German foreign policy, theories of international
politics.
Course description:
Cooperation in world politics is, as it seems now, required more than ever
before. But is this a realistic expectation? The course starts with
historical reflections concerning the beginnings of cooperation between
states and other relevant actors. It then proceeds with the question why
state and substate actors as well as transnational groups do interact and
cooperate, in the 1st place and in which policy fields. Here, a brief
discussion on game theories will be useful. The next step is outlining those
fields in which national, inter- and transnational actors do cooperate,
especially by building regimes and institutions. Internet resources will be
checked and used. Finally, the role of domestic interests and constellations
will be included in discussions: How are they related to developments in
regional and world arenas? How is globalization affecting cooperation, and
between whom? We also will arrange meetings with experts on these topics.
The tuition for this course is DM 1,200.-. There is an additional onetime
registration fee of DM 150.-. Besides the above mentioned course we offer 14
other fully-credited courses covering topics on Berlin, Germany, and Europe.
