中文简介: 本课程探讨现代战争的原因,重点是可预防的原因。课程阅读材料包括理论,历史和方法论主题。在课程的前几周,对战争的主要理论进行了探索和评估,在每个阶段都要求“这些是好的理论吗?”。和“他们怎么可能被测试?”基本的社会科学推理 - 什么是理论?什么是好理论?如何构建和测试理论? - 还讨论了案例研究方法。课程的后半部分探讨了一些主要战争爆发的历史。我们使用这些案例作为案例研究的原材料,询问“这些事件是否是案例研究的主题,如何进行这些研究,以及从中可以学到什么?”
课程简介: This course explores the causes of modern war with a focus on preventable causes. Course readings cover theoretical, historical, and methodological topics. Major theories of war are explored and assessed in the first few weeks of the class, asking at each stage "are these good theories?" and "how could they be tested?" Basic social scientific inference -- what are theories? What are good theories? How should theories be framed and tested? -- and case study methodology are also discussed. The second half of the course explores the history of the outbreak of some major wars. We use these cases as raw material for case studies, asking "if these episodes were the subject of case studies, how should those studies be performed, and what could be learned from them?"
关 键 词: 现代战争; 原因与预防; 评估
