BRI 007 - TEORIA AVANÇADA DAS RELAÇÕES INTERNACIONAIS

Rafael Villa
Maria Hermínia Tavares de Almeida

I. Objetivos:
Familiarizar os estudantes com temas, paradigmas e autores centrais na produção
acadêmica contemporânea em relações internacionais.

II. Metodologia:
O programa será desenvolvido na base de aulas expositivas e seminários.
Os seminários terão o formato típico de reuniões acadêmicas, com expositor,
debatedores e tempo limitado para as apresentações. Os alunos que não estiverem
apresentando ou debatendo deverão entregar, por escrito, um pequeno resumo dos
textos , indicando os pontos que gostaria de ver discutidos.
Em alguns seminários serão utilizados estudos de caso, do banco de casos da Kennedy
School of Government, Harvard University.

III. Avaliação:
Constará de uma prova e um trabalho final que pode ser um policy paper ou um
projeto à escolha do aluno. Também se levará em conta, no cálculo da média final, a
participação e os resumos de textos para os seminários programados.
