Why is the course important? The Monroe Doctrine has not only served as a model and justification for U.S. imperialism in the Americas since 1823, but it has also provided the foundations upon which other doctrines elsewhere have been built. Plus, at a time when the Israel/Gaza, Ukraine/Russia, and numerous other wars around the world are causing untold harm to people and the planet, there is no better time to explore the principles of (non)intervention, self-determination, and sovereignty, or to delve into the doctrines and practices supporting U.S. expansion across the globe.
Who is the course for? The course is for anyone interested in topics related to U.S. imperialism and hegemony; as well as peace and development in Latin America and the Caribbean. It will also appeal to those engaged in broader discussions surrounding doctrines, war and militarism, imperialism, self-determination, sovereignty, decolonisation, international relations, and U.S. foreign policy.
A certificate is provided to participants who complete all written assignments.
