With the growing number of governmental and non-governmental international organizations, it becomes increasingly important to understand modes and principles of cooperation of political actors within the international system. This seminar focuses on cooperation theories and the specific roles of international organizations. Additionally, a strong focus will be put on the creation and dynamics of inter-organizational networks in combination with resource dependencies. The goal of the seminar is to provide a more elaborated and differentiated perspective on cooperation in the international system. Within the first part of the seminar, an analytical framework will be jointly elaborated. Students are then expected to present specific case examples of inter-organizational cooperation and resource dependence in the second part of the seminar.

Im Modul Forschungspraxis in den internationalen Beziehungen sind zwei Seminare zu belegen (4011029 bis 4011035).
