IICS 621 Technology and International Security

Technology influences security and globalization in comprehensive political and economic terms. The problem, however, is that the nature of the relationship between technology and security is unclear, especially during times of rapid and pervasive technological change. The purpose of this seminar is to explore the ways in which technology influences international security by examining its political, economic, and strategic implications. This seminar begins by examining technologies that shaped security in the 20th century, and then shifts the discussion to how contemporary technologies are influencing political, economic, and military security in the 21st century.
