Making Sense of World Politics
This series aims at combining several International Relations theories with topical and current world events. Questions are raised about democracy, privacy, terrorism, conflicts, feminism, foreign policy and refugees, etc. In the first two lectures Krommendijk will join Erdogan, and Livaha will speak in the second and third lecture. They will enter into an engaging and lively debate with one another and with the audience. While one side explains an argument, the other will question it with provocative and grounded criticisms and arguments.
