Carleton University Winter 2007 Department of Political Science PSCI 6601W Theory and Research in International Relations II Fridays, 9:35 a.m. 12:35 p.m. (C665 Loeb) Instructor:Randall Germain Office: B657 Loeb Contact: randall_germain@carleton.ca Office Hours:Tuesday and Thursday Ext. 6614 9am 11am Aims and objectives PSCI 6600 and PSCI 6601 together constitute the core course in International Relations for the Department of Political Science, and their main aim is to prepare students to take their comprehensive examinations at the end of their first year of doctoral studies. PSCI 6601 builds on the material explored in PSCI 6600, and examines what some have recently termed the critical or reflectivist tradition of theorizing in IR. After completing this course, students should be able to compare and contrast the key differences among competing theoretical approaches in IR. They should also be able to specify and discuss the key attributes, strengths and weaknesses of these different theoretical approaches, and relate them to the development of the field of IR broadly construed. Structure and assessment This course is organized as a seminar and meets weekly in three hour sessions. The format of the class is student-led, which means that students introduce and lead discussions each week on selected topics. Each seminar will begin with a short presentation that outlines the key features, strengths and weaknesses of a particular theorist. These presentations should be kept to a length of no more than 15 minutes, and they should be supported by handouts for the class that highlight the main points under discussion. These handouts may be emailed to members of the class prior to meeting. Assessment will be based on a combination of oral contributions to discussion and three short essays. The oral contribution component of the assessment covers the entire semester, including presentations (students should be prepared to lead more than one class). Essays should be handed in within two weeks of the class discussion th of the theorist and their literature, and in no case later than April 6. These essays are meant to be critical reviews of the theorist s work and must incorporate secondary material. They are to be word-processed, double-spaced, with normal margins and 12 point font, and should be between seven and ten pages in length. Please note that there will be no exceptions to writing three essays. The breakdown of the marks for the course is as follows: Oral contribution 25% (including presentations) 3 x short essay 25% each 1

Course readings All of the headline texts have been ordered and are available for purchase at the bookstore. It is also advisable to purchase a good advanced-level reader for use throughout the course: Scott Burchill et al, Theories of International Relations (3 rd ed.) has been ordered. The readings are organized in terms of required, further and secondary. The required readings are to be read by everyone; further readings are highly recommended and must be incorporated into the critical review essays. s will be valuable in terms of preparing for the comprehensive exam. Additionally, all of the required and further readings (aside from the principal texts) have been photocopied and placed in a folder in the resource room. Please treat them with care to ensure that everyone has fair access to them. Summary of topics 1. Post-positivism: critical theory and international relations 2.

After registering with the PMC, make an appointment to meet with the instructor in order to discuss your needs at least two weeks before the first in-class test or CUTV midterm exam. This 11

will allow for sufficient time to process your request. Please note the following deadlines for submitting completed forms to the PMC for formally scheduled exam accommodations: th th November 6, 2006 for fall and fall/winter term courses, and March 9, 2007 for winter term courses. For Religious Observance: Students requesting accommodation for religious observances should apply in writing to their instructor for alternate dates and/or means of satisfying academic requirements. Such requests should be made during the first two weeks of class, or as soon as possible after the need for accommodation is known to exist, but no later than two weeks before the compulsory academic event. Accommodation is to be worked out directly and on an individual basis between the student and the instructor(s) involved. Instructors will make accommodations in a way that avoids academic disadvantage to the student. Instructors and students may contact an Equity Services Advisor for assistance (www.carleton.ca/equity). For Pregnancy: Pregnant students requiring academic accommodations are encouraged to contact an Equity Advisor in Equity Services to complete a letter of accommodation. Then, make an appointment to discuss your needs with the instructor at least two weeks prior to the first academic event in which it is anticipated the accommodation will be required. Plagiarism: The Undergraduate Calendar defines plagiarism as: "to use and pass off as one's own idea or product, work of another without expressly giving credit to another." The Graduate Calendar states that plagiarism has occurred when a student either: (a) directly copies another's work without acknowledgment; or (b) closely paraphrases the equivalent of a short paragraph or more without acknowledgment; or (c) borrows, without acknowledgment, any ideas in a clear and recognizable form in such a way as to present them as the student's own thought, where such ideas, if they were the student's own would contribute to the merit of his or her own work. Instructors who suspect plagiarism are required to submit the paper and supporting documentation to the Departmental Chair who will refer the case to the Dean. It is not permitted to hand in the same assignment to two or more courses. The Department's Style Guide is available at: www.carleton.ca/polisci/undergrad/styleguide.pdf Oral Examination: At the discretion of the instructor, students may be required to pass a brief oral examination on research papers and essays. Submission and Return of Term Work: Papers must be handed directly to the instructor and will not be date-stamped in the departmental office. Late assignments may be submitted to the drop box in the corridor outside B640 Loeb. Assignments will be retrieved every business day at 4 p.m., stamped with that day's date, and then distributed to the instructor. For essays not returned in class please attach a stamped, self-addressed envelope if you wish to have your assignment returned by mail. Please note that assignments sent via fax or email will not be accepted. Final exams are intended solely for the purpose of evaluation and will not be returned. Approval of final grades: Standing in a course is determined by the course instructor subject to the approval of the Faculty Dean. This means that grades submitted by an instructor may be subject to revision. No grades are final until they have been approved by the Dean. Course Requirements: Students must fulfill all course requirements in order to achieve a passing grade. Failure to hand in any assignment will result in a grade of F. Failure to write the final exam will result in a grade of ABS. FND (Failure B No Deferred) is assigned when a student's performance is so poor during the term that they cannot pass the course even with 100% on the final examination. In such cases, instructors may use this notation on the Final Grade Report to indicate that a student has already failed the course due to inadequate term work and should not be permitted access to a deferral of the examination. Deferred final exams are available ONLY if the student is in good standing in the course. Connect Email Accounts: The Department of Political Science strongly encourages students to sign up for a campus email account. Important course and University information will be distributed via the Connect email system. See http://connect.carleton.ca for instructions on how to set up your account. 12
