Social Science - International Relations
Designed to complement teaching in the postgraduate International Relations learning circle, the Institute’ International Relations programme examines the changing character of international politics, describing how national governments interact with other states, international organisations and non-state actors. The program also examines the relationship between states and emerging social and religious movements. It also considers regional and global mechanisms for multilateral cooperation, as well as the implications of globalization on the relationship between the state and society in countries around the world.

Across the Emergency Response Spectrum”
The Scholar Ship Research Institute and the National University of Singapore will host an international workshop to examine regional approaches to disaster management in Southeast Asia. Scheduled for January 2008 in Bangkok, Thailand, the workshop will consider how organizations like ASEAN can enhance multilateral coordination in responding to natural and/or man-made disasters. Participants will also focus on lessons learned in the wake of the 2005 Tsumani and their applicability to New Security Threats, including disease and forced migration.
