PSC 0366 - International Politics and Cyber Security


Demand 3 Credit Hours
This course focuses on cyberspace, cyber threats, and cyber conflict, specifically regarding the implications for the public and private sectors, national governments, non-governmental actors, and international politics. Topics include the creation and evolution of cyberspace, changes to the international system structure, new modes of conflict and cooperation, and strategies for international security in a digital world. Students will examine how current international relations theory accommodates cyberspace as a new venue of politics, and how cyber-politics alters traditional international politics, demanding new theoretical frameworks and empirical study. Students will also be exposed to the types of cyber threats and tactics used to infiltrate computer systems at all levels of society.
