Global Politics is about understanding key political concepts and contemporary issues as they happen on the local, national, and global stage. It is about critically applying different theories and approaches to the actions of political actors and world leaders. Global Politics explores the complex and interconnected nature of many political issues and develops the capacity to interpret competing and contestable claims regarding those issues. If you are going to change the world then you need to first understand how it works. Global Politics helps you develop that understanding. Just as importantly, if you plan to make a difference in the world then you need to be engaged with the issues and be prepared to have your opinions challenged and to challenge the opinions of others.
