1 Political Science 479Z Topics IR: Post-Conflict Reconstruction Mark Baskin T-Th : 4:15 5:35 POS 479Z, Humanities 0109 mark.baskin@cid.suny.edu Hours in Contact Office: T, Th: Course Objectives: This course will explore sources of the new, post-cold-war armed conflicts and reconstruction at the end of wars. It will go into international organizations, bad neighborhoods, ideology, identity politics and the drive for resources. It will examine third-party intervention; how wars end; and postwar economic, political and social reconstruction. It will consider cases from Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Europe. The class will address current issues under discussion in New York and international capitals, as well as the deeper dynamics of these conflicts. It will address priorities, decision-making, unintended consequences, and formal and informal national-international relationships. Students will employ class discussions, written exercises and role playing to understand the logic of different vantage points (international-local, Government-NGO, Critical-Constructive) of national-international conflict management and underlying dynamics of development.

2 Writing and Plagiarism. Plagiarism is the intentional or unintentional use of another s words or ideas without giving credit to that person. While this includes copying text word for word without the use of quotation marks, it also includes paraphrasing another person s work without proper citation. Intellectual honesty is a core value of university and the foundation of faculty and student development. Students guilty of plagiarizing any material will receive a failing grade for the course and the evidence will be automatically turned over to the Office of Student Conduct. During the first week of class, all students must review the UAlbany Library s tutorial on plagiarism entitled: Plagiarism 101 ( In this course, we will employ the program Turnitin to assess whether students have engaged in plagiarism. Participation. Class participation consists of preparation for and engagement in class discussion. It entails regular class attendance, completing assigned readings, asking relevant questions, and taking positions on issues raised in class. Final: an in-class essay exam will give the opportunity to present information and opine on the material covered in class. Papers: There will be three written assignments. Detailed assignments will be handed out in class Annotated Bibliography on one of the following five themes: Humanitarian Relief, Security and Justice, Economic Development, Political Development, and Social Capital and Civil Society as it plays out in one of the 28 missions covered in the Annual Review of Global Peace Operations Case Study that explores the background to the issue that was covered in the annotated bibliography. It should present historical background to the conflict; discuss the settlement that led to a specific peace operation; and present timely and complete information on the players involved in addressing the issue; and the degree of success they are having. Detailed instructions will follow. Policy Memorandum and Background Note. A two-part note that gives background to one of the issues of policy or operations and that recommends a course of action to a senior executive, such as a Foreign Minister, UN Secretary General, Commander in the Field, Civilian Head of Peace Operations. It will further develop the issue and country that have been the subject of the first two assignments and will constitute the class Conference on Reconstruction (below). Conference: The class will conclude with a 5-Session Conference on Reconstruction, in which students will present their policy memoranda that address the following issues at separate sessions: Humanitarian Relief, Security and Justice, Economic Development, Political Development, and Social Capital and Civil Society. Students will be expected both to make a presentation of their own paper, and ask questions and engage in a discussion concerning the papers written by other students. 2
