International Institutions and International Cooperation
The course covers the formal and informal rules that govern how actors cooperate and interact in the international system.
This includes theories and debates within research on patterns, causes, and consequences of the increasingly complex international institutions that exist in the world.
International institutions play a significant role in the consequences of global governance and global political solutions, for example, when it comes to issues of justice, legitimacy, and efficiency.
