Course Description
This course will trace the development of American foreign policy, particularly national security policies, from 1945 to 2001. We will focus on the evolution of the U.S. role in the world from a Cold Warrior to a Peacekeeper. Students will use the Internet extensively and work with materials from Brown University's Choices Education Project. They will play roles as presidential advisors in simulated debates and draw lessons from past foreign policy experiences, including the Cold War, Vietnam War, the Gulf War and recent international actions in Bosnia and Kosovo.
