    In a world of 8 billion people and over 200 countries, approaches and perspectives on various global issues are very diverse. Learn how the global politics of trade, migration, health, sustainable development, conflict, and new global security challenges is perceived, responded to and shaped in various regions, from Europe and Asia to Africa and Latin America. By familiarizing you with diverse theoretical perspectives on the issues, this course will enable you better understand how various state and non-state international actors view global issues today. It will provide clarity on the diversity and direction of global politics in the 21st-century.
