New technologies are transforming the nature of competition and conflict in international relations. Drones allow nations to engage in “bloodless” warfare though the weak and vulnerable continue to be targeted. Cyber space blurs the lines on maps and between civilian and military. New strategies are developing to enact and resist new modes of warfare. This course equips students to better understand and operate in this brave new technological world and to interpret politics in the twenty-first century.
