How does universal jurisdiction play out in war crimes? - Answer-national courts have
prosecuted individuals who commit war crimes such as genocide

What is the role of the United Nations (UN) in managing conflict around the world? -
Answer-it prevents conflict; helps parties in conflict make peace, and creates conditions
to allow peace.

UN only intervenes in inter state conflicts - as type of conflict that a system experiences,
the UN also deals w more civil wars than inter state wars bc no inter state wars taking
place

Can you give examples of conflicts to which the UN sent a peacekeeping mission? -
Answer-United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of
the Congo (MONUSCO). The mission was established to protect civilians from violence,
facilitate humanitarian access, and disarm, demobilize, and reintegrate former
combatants back into society.

What is the main hypothesis of the democratic peace theory - Answer-Democracies are
much less liking to fight wars with one another than non democracies

No wars have been fought since 1815 between independent nations with elective
governments

Is there an economic peace just like democratic peace (economic liberalism)? Are
economically interdependent states less likely to fight each other? - Answer-States that
are economically independent are typically more conductive and more willing to
cooperate among other states because they form various interactions together. When
two states trade with each other, if those two states go to war, they lose this trade
agreement. Economic interdependence gives one state a material stake in the
prosperity and stability of another's economic system.

Global (external) → State/Internal → Individual1.) Global (Most comprehensive level) -
Causes of behavior originate from the system levelCertain characteristics of the
international system affect states' behavior2.) State/Internal (Most popular level) -
Causes of behavior originate from domestic politics of states such as regime type,
economic system, and domestic groups3.) Individual Level of Analysis - Action begins in
the minds and emotions of men (domestic/sub-national)Most important level -

, State/Internal; includes Balance of Power (1st IR theory) and first type of conflict subject
to systematic research (inter-state war)

Who is the International Relations scholar who first systematically theorized about the
levels of analysis (problem) in the subfield? - Answer-First theorized by J. David Singer;
includes domestic and external influencesKenneth Waltz- wrote "man, the state, and
war"

Is there a distinction between "internal" and"external" sovereignty? - Answer-"internal
sovereignty," meaning supremacy over all other entities within one's territory
external sovereignty" meaning independence from authorities outside that territory
Example: The European Union

Define anarchy - Answer-there is no authority above the state (no global gov); it is the
principle of authority that underlines the concept of sovereignty

How do scientists measure power? - Answer-according to states' material capabilities,
population, industrial production and consumption, military personnel and expenditures.

What are the three main forms that the distribution of power in the international system
can take? - Answer--Unipolar/Hegemonic System
-Bipolar System
-Multipolar System

Can you define protectionism? What are the tools of protectionism? - Answer-The
theory or practice of shielding a country's domestic industries from foreign competition
by taxing imports.
Tariffs, subsidies, quotas, and currency manipulation

When was protectionism rampant - Answer-During the global depression of the 1930's.
U.S., UK, France, Germany and Japan all sought to stimulate domestic production and
reduce unemployment.

Have we seen similar protectionist measures after the 2008 financial crisis? - Answer-
When the market crashed in 2008, governments were more likely to erect trade barriers
when their economies experienced recessions, however, protectionism was very limited
after the 2008 financial crisis due to the numerous instances of liberalisation; many of
the countries that were among the most active users of restrictive trade policies also
tended to selectively reduce the level of protection for some products.

What are the different types of conflicts that take place around the world (between
states or within a state)? - Answer-Inter-State, Intra-State, Extra-State

Inter-State Conflict - Answer-military conflict waged BETWEEN states
examples: WWI, WWII, U.S. Invasion of Iraq 2003
