This course provides an overview of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) of the European Union (EU). It discusses the most important aspects of CFSP and related questions. This includes an overview of the history of CFSP, EU institutions concerned with implementing CFSP, the European Security and Defence Policy (ESDP), the relationship between the EU and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), enlargement of the EU, and major challenges for CFSP. The course is designed in three parts: the first part provides a theoretical overview of IR and EU theories; the second part deals with the historical evolution and institutional setup of CFSP and ESDP, and the third part will present and analyse a series of important case studies dealing with various events, regions or institutions related to CFSP. A one-day field study trip is conducted during the semester (Eurocorps and Feste Kaiser Wilhelm II. - Fort de Mutzig)
Prerequisites:
Course in European politics or international relations
Learning outcomes:
The students will develop a general understanding of the development, nature, functioning, and problems of the European Union in international affairs. Additionally, students will be introduced to the major theories of International Relations used to analyze the European Union. As a result the students will be able to analyze the different aspects of the complex European Common Foreign and Security Policy, basing their judgments not simply on basic facts, but rather on theories and academic debates. This should encourage the students to understand the underlying dualism between supranationalism and intergovernmentalism of CFSP. Additionally, students will gain an understanding of the major historical problems that shape European politics. This is important to understand most of the problems the EU has to face today, ranging from the conflicts on the Balkans to current problems the EU experiences e.g. in EU- Russia relations
Method of presentation:
Lectures, student presentation, seminar discussions, group work, role play. Powerpoint presentations used by the instructor in class will be made available on Moodle after each class.
Group Project: Four students form a group and devise a questionnaire related to CFPS (10-15 questions). With this questionnaire, students are questioned about CFSP and the results presented in class.
Seminar discussions are based upon the compulsory readings and introductions of the topics discussed and presented during the sessions. The students are expected to join the debate with (prepared) questions and points related to the readings and with new ideas related to the course topic in general.
Students are required to complete all reading assignments and are expected to demonstrate this through regularly assigned homework, pop quizzes and/or insightful and relevant contributions to in-class discussion. All of these components count toward the class participation grade. Written assignments (homework and quizzes) count toward 50% of the participation grade, while in-class participation will count toward 50% of the grade. Written assignments not handed in on time or not fulfilled in a satisfactory manner (e.g. not really answering a question) will lead to a 5 point deduction from a total of 50 points (50% of participation grade).
The mid-term exam consists of multiple choice identification questions (stages of EU integration and EU external relations, key EU political players and institutions and their role in EU (foreign) policy-making and key aspects of EU external relations and the EU’s CFSP), and one (out of three) essay question.
The final exam consists of multiple choice identification questions (case studies, key aspects of EU external relations and CFSP) and of an essay question on different aspects of the topics discussed in class before (political assessment of certain aspects of European foreign and security policy, proposals and ideas for the future development of the EU external relations and EU Foreign Policy).
Two essays of 7 pages each are assigned. These will be written on seminar-related topics (a list of three topics to choose from is provided for each essay, or an essay of your own choosing after consultation with the instructor). Essays are evaluated not only on the basis of content but also on correct structure and
formatting. An outline of these requirements is available to students as a guide. Shortcomings in any of these aspects will be reflected in the grade. To receive an ‘A’ on a term paper, students cannot neglect any of the
given standards.
