Dozierende Tobias Hagmann Leupin (tobias.hagmann@unibas.ch, BeurteilerIn)
Inhalt From Gaza to Eastern Ukraine military occupations by foreign powers are in the international spotlight. This seminar scrutinizes the politics of military occupation from a comparative perspective. Taking its point of departure in post World War II military occupations, it sheds light on the motives and techniques of occupying powers, analyzes the everyday governance of civilians under occupation and highlights different trajectories of military occupations. We read about, compare and analyze different types of military occupation including neighboring military occupations in Syria, Palestine and the post-Soviet space, international occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan, long-standing occupations such as Cyprus and Western Sahara and de facto occupations such as Kashmir or northern Ethiopia. Key political science debates and concepts on armed conflict, imperialism and nation-building in situations of both international and internal conflict are addressed in this seminar. Students attending this seminar will work on and prepare a presentation of a specific case.
Lernziele - Participants familiarize themselves with the political, institutional and military dynamics of foreign occupations and their evolution since the end of the Cold War.
- Participants practice comparative analytical skills and reflect on the strengths and weaknesses of existing causal explanations of military occupations.
- Participants gain an in-depth understanding of select contemporary cases of military occupations.
