This teaching unit is dedicated to security cooperation on an international level. The presentation opens with a general introduction to the topic, before exploring a few specific examples of international security cooperation (organisations, unions and initiatives), across time (past/present) and continents.

Instead of a live lecture in class, I have uploaded a narrated presentation for you (and a pdf file) to this page.

Please remember to sign up for at least one of the exam dates in the IS, and mind the approaching date of the second online quiz (09.12).

If you have any questions, please let me know.
