Course Description and Objectives
Do non-governmental organizations make a difference? How do they interact with and alter the international state system? This course examines the activities and influence of transnational non-governmental organizations. Non-governmental organizations are increasingly important internationally – they have not replaced states, but they must be considered alongside states as global actors. This course aims to build understanding of the international role of NGOs in a range of areas.
