1 Page 1 of 7 PLS 302 Syllabus PLS 302 Dr. Aspin (aspin at bradley.edu) World Security 488 Bradley ( ) Fall 2012 Hours: MWF 10-11; TT 9-12 COURSE DESCRIPTION This course explores the nature and problems of achieving human security in the face of a rapidly changing world. Reflecting changes in both the world and the field of security studies, the course will cover not only the traditional core concerns of national security, but also the expanding approaches and issues in achieving individual and global security in the face of both military and non-military threats. The course will review the expansion of the security studies field, address the nature of security, examine some of the core classic traditional security threats, review alternative views of the world, identify requirements for effective policy, and then examine a series of key security issues from the viewpoints of the individual, the state, and the global community. While security policy cannot be made without value choices, no particular set of values is advocated. COURSE MATERIALS The following books have been ordered and are available at the book store. Michael E. Smith, International Security: Politics, Policy, Prospects, Palgrave, 2010 Alan Collins, Contemporary Security Studies, 2nd edition, Oxford University Press, Any other required reading material will be found on reserve in the library or on the WWW. If space is available, some Power Point presentations will be published on a WWW home page for the course ( COURSE REQUIREMENTS Exams: There will be two examinations in the course, a midterm and a final. Specific dates are on the course calendar. Make-up exams will be given only if two conditions are satisfied: (1) you have a valid reason, to be determined by the instructor, for not being at the regular exam, and (2) arrangements are made at least 24-hours before the regular exam. See the course home page for additional details. Individual Position Paper: The new definitions of security are broad, but time and resources of any state or community are limited. As the new National Security Advisor for the President you have been asked to write a page analysis rank ordering the five most important security problems for the US. Justify not only selecting these five above all others, but also your rank ordering of the five selected problems. All papers must be typed, written in clear English, properly documented, and the original work of the student. The final draft is due on or before December 3, No late papers will be accepted. Details.
2 Page 2 of 7 Group Policy Proposal and Discussion Leadership: In the second half, or issues section of the course, the lectures on Monday and Wednesday will focus on background and analysis of a problem, or problem area. Fridays will be devoted to discussing policy options for this problem, or part thereof. A student team will identify a series of policy options, analyze them, and make a recommendation. The teams work will be reported as a web page, or PowerPoint presentation, linked to the PLS 302 homepage. The team will present its results and lead the class discussion. Additional details are available on the Group Project Discussion: The class format is lecture/discussion. You are expected to read the material for each topic and be prepared to discuss it. In addition, five class periods, Fridays in the second half of the course, will have student directed discussions. The group will present its policy proposal web site and lead the discussion on the topic. Your discussion grade includes the entire semester and not these five structured discussions.
