My approach is in keeping with the University core requirement that the course deal 2/3 with non-Western/non-European cultures. The course is about 30% concepts and models and 70% case studies which focus on: Brazil, Jamaica, Japan, United Kingdom

My POLI 2 covers China (Communist systems), India (parliamentary systems), and Mexico (state bureaucracy). Two Winter courses have Arrupe placements with Confucian, South Asian, or Latin clients.

We begin the course by comparing democratic regimes, using the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Israel and India as the main examples. We then turn to Communist regimes and Marxist ideology, using the Soviet Union and China for illustrative purposes. Next we examine countries in Latin America and Africa to assess the recent democratization process. We then end the course by looking closely at the Islamic World with particular attention on the role of religion in the Middle East.
