POLS 3870 - Terrorism and Genocide

Hours: 4
This course analyzes the causes and consequences of violence perpetrated against civilians by governments (genocide) and by non-state actors (terrorism). Special attention will be given to how genocide and terrorism have been organized throughout history, and how they have evolved into their current applications. The course will explore the extent to which religion, nationality, race, ethnicity, and patriarchy serve as motivating principles for genocide and terrorism.
Prerequisites: POLS 1300 or permission of instructor.
