Applied Quantitative methods C (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Hana Attia

Termin:
wöchentlich | Montag | 14:15 - 15:45 | 07.04.2025 - 11.07.2025 | C 12.015 Seminarraum

Inhalt: Knowledge on research methods is essential for students of any empirically oriented social science. In the study of political science, an understanding of statistical data analysis is necessary not only for conducting analysis but also for understanding a significant proportion of the empirical political science literature. This course introduces students to research designs, quantitative methods and data analysis in empirical political science research. The seminar covers topics ranging from the first formulation of a theoretical argument to empirical testing thereof. We will use the statistical program STATA for the sessions on data management and statistical analysis.

Economic Statecraft (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Hana Attia

Termin:
wöchentlich | Montag | 16:15 - 17:45 | 07.04.2025 - 11.07.2025 | C 14.001 Seminarraum

Inhalt: Economic statecraft is the use of economic tools, i.e. financial and regulatory, to achieve foreign policy objectives. For a long time, the primary focus in International Relations was on the threat or use of force, with tools for economic statecraft being seen as mere symbolic gestures or tools of little consequence. Nevertheless, in the last three decades, there has been a remarkable surge in the utilization of tools for economic statecraft. A recent example is the use of economic sanctions to respond to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This course familiarizes students with the different tools available in the economic statecraft toolkit, including trade, foreign direct investment, and sanctions. We will study how and when governments select from their economic statecraft toolkit—which frequently involves selecting between economic rewards and punishment. Additionally, we will study the conditions under which these tools work best, while emphasizing the conceptual and methodological issues involved in measuring their effectiveness.
