PROSPECTS FOR INTERNATIONAL POLITICS AFTER TRUMP

The last four years have seen many of the norms of international politics disrupted by the outgoing American administration. What are the prospects for the future: a return to the status quo ante, more of the same, or the emergence of a new set of  dynamics governing world politics? And how do Canada and Canada-US relations fit into this changing world?

In a discussion moderated by Professor Emeritus Ken Carty (Political Science), Professors Richard Price and Allen Sens (Political Science) will address these questions, considering the shape of international relations in the next decade and questions of security, conflict, and the future of NATO.

Allen Sens (PhD, Queen’s) specializes in international relations, with a research and teaching focus on international security. He has a particular interest in armed conflict and conflict management, especially peace
operations, nuclear weapons and arms control, European security, and Canadian foreign and defence policy.

Richard Price (PhD, Cornell) specializes in international relations. His research interests focus on the role of norms in world politics, particularly norms limiting warfare; constructivist international relations theory; normative international relations theory; the politics of international law; and ethics in world politics.
