SPS 101 Humanity and Society I |
3 Credits |
This course provides an introduction to the study of
the human experience in the pre-modern world (from
early humans to mid 18th century). It brings together
various disciplinary approaches and major topics of
the pre-modern world in a roughly chronological
order. There are three central aims of this course.
The first aim is to present our students the challenges
and potential in the scientific study of human
experience through the introduction of various
analytical tools from disciplines such as history,
sociology, anthropology and economics. The idea is
to show to our students that the human experience is
as much the realm of scientific inquiry and critical
thinking as it is the case with the natural world. The
second aim is to introduce the basic dynamics of the
pre-modern world before the 18th century so that
students would be adequately equipped to follow our
consecutive course SPS 102 about the modern era
and the concept of modernity. Finally, this course also
aims to emphasize the structured use of language, in
this case English, for the purposes of knowledge
production and critical analysis. It accepts the role of
language in humanities and social sciences as
important as calculus is for physics. To that end, it
pays special attention to critical reading and writing
as evident from the course structure.

SPS 102 Humanity and Society II |
3 Credits |
This course provides an introduction to the study of
the human experience in the modern world. It brings
together the history of major milestones in the
modern era, from the mid-18th century to the 21st
century, and prominent theoretical frameworks that
are employed to analyze this transformative period in
the history of our species. SPS 102 is designed to be
a follow-up of SPS 101 and thus compliments the
content and the academic skills that were previously
introduced. There are three central aims of this
course. The first aim is to present our students the
challenges and potential in the scientific study of
human experience through the introduction of various
analytical tools from disciplines such as history,
sociology, anthropology and economics. The second
aim is to provide the intellectual foundations that
would help our students to understand the dynamics
of the contemporary world around them by
historicizing its relatively recent formation in the
history of humanity. Finally, this course also aims to
emphasize the structured use of language, in this
case English, for the purposes of knowledge
production and critical analysis. It accepts the role of
language in humanities and social sciences as
important as calculus is for physics. To that end, it
pays special attention to critical reading and writing
as evident from the course structure.

SPS 303 Law and Ethics |
3 Credits |
This course aims to encourage students to reflect on
the meaning of being an individual and a citizen.
Certain fundamental questions, posed by the
ancients but persisting in their relevance, informs
the structure of the course: What is good life? How
should we live? What does the life of a virtuous
individual and citizen consist of? How can the likely
conflicts between the two be resolved? Related to
these, the course also explores the diverse
relationships between law and ethics and adresses
issues such as political authority, representation and
consent, freedom, justice, and equality.

SPS 320 Approaches to Ethnic Conflict |
3 Credits |
Many students of ethnicity and nationalism try to explain
ethnic roots of conflicts and examine cases where
ethnic conflicts with varied level of violence/non-violence.
However, a study of ethnic conflict should encompass
various dimensions of the issue including the causes,
process, and outcomes. This course will
use literature from sociology and anthropology to study
the roots of ethnic conflicts, geography to discuss
the spatial meanings attached to ethnic differences,
literature from political science to examine how different
political systems accommodate ethnic differences and
ethnic violence and international relations to come up
with possible strategies to prevent and reconcile them.
We will also refer to historical case study examples.

SPS 322 Football, Nationality and the State |
3 Credits |
Irrespective of gender, race, ethnicity or religion
football occupies a central place in the
daily lives of many people in the world. Viewed
from this perspective football is not only a
sport but it is also a social phenomenon. Football is
deeply embedded in and relates to
concepts like patriotism, nations, nationality, nationalism
and the state. This course primarily aims
to study football as a social phenomenon and to
explore its political, social and cultural implications
on a global scale. Football, as a
political instrument whether employed for
repression of the masses or as a way of
expressing different identities is an exceptional
game that carries the potential to help
us to understand the complexities of modern
society and politics.

SPS 325 Alcibiades and Philoctetes: Individual?s Talents and Rights in an Oligarchical Society |
3 Credits |
Throughout history and fiction, individuals with
outstanding talents within their social settings
have been subjected to life-determining
societal responses. A more general issue is the
protection/transgression of an individual's rights
when they are perceived to be at odds with
the dominant forces of society. The problem
becomes acute in oligarchical societies, which
are controlled by a close-knit coalition insensitive
to the larger benefit of the majority. The
conflict between individual talent and reactionary
oligarchy is vividly seen in the historical
character of Alcibiades of Athens, during the
Peloponnesian War. The conflict of oligarchic
transgression over individual rights has been
given attention in the story of Philoctetes in the
Iliad, as masterfully brought into focus in the play by
Sophocles, in the medieval novel The Abyss
(L'Oeuvre au Noir) by Marguerite Yourcenar, and in
the history of Piri Reis. A critical analysis of
individual talents and rights under oligarchic
encroachment will be conducted, with
historical, biographical, and literary settings.

SPS 452 Military in Society and Politics |
3 Credits |
This course analyzes the interaction between the
military, society, and politics, with specific examples
from Latin America, Africa, Middle East, and Asia.
It introduces the main characteristics of the
military organization and its professionalism, taking
the Western model as the ideal. It examines how the
role of the military in politics and society changes at
various political, economic, and social development
levels. It asks if the military is an institution
that resolves conflicts within society by mediating between
different sides, or an actor that pursues its own
corporate interests. The course also focuses on the
consequences of military interventions on politics,
society, and the future of democracy. Keeping
in mind the outcomes of military interventions, the course
considers civilian control of the military
in democracies
