This seminar examines treaty behavior over a broad spectrum of subject areas—including security, environment, trade and human rights. Approaches to international agreements affect economic, security and foreign policy in this interdependent world. The seminar examines IL and IR theories of compliance. It explores exceptionalism in treaty behavior—American and other nations. The seminar offers students the opportunity to do research in depth on one or more treaties, or the behavior of a given nation or group of nation under several treaties. Prior law courses helpful but not required. (Wednesday 3:20-5:20 p.m.)
