International Relations Major
This week's International Relations Major has introduced students to the interdisciplinary nature of the subject and focused on both historical and modern case studies.
Today, students undertook a simulation exercise, where each pair took the role of a Great Power in 1914, and then had to use secret negotiation and diplomacy to reach a settlement that would avert war. Some incredibly inventive tactics were employed and completely unexpectedly alliances formed, with the net result meaning that war was not avoided, and Austria-Hungary was completely surrounded!
