Great Power Military Intervention: Course Description
This free OpenCourseWare explores several civil war interventions by western powers in the 1990s. These interventions were sometimes controversial, particularly in the United States, because of the cost involved and the political implications. 'Great Power Military Intervention' looks at several examples of intervention, including the 1991 protection of the Kurds in North Iraq, the 1994 Rwandan genocide and the 1995 conflict in Bosnia Herzegovina, and addresses these conflicts by considering several questions. A closer look at these interventions may set the stage for understanding international political trends, unipolarity and limited wars. Developed by Professor Barry Posen, this seminar was offered through the Political Science Department of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
'Great Power Military Intervention' OpenCourseWare includes assignment suggestions and an extensive recommended reading list, which is available online. If you're interested in taking this free course, visit the military intervention course page.
