The seminar (CONT), a corrolary to the Theories of International Relations lecture course (JPM945), will introduce students in depth to several streams of theorising in the field of International Relations inspired by continental theory. The readings around which class discussions will be organised combine original articulations of concepts and theories by Michel Foucault, Giorgio Agamben, Bruno Latour, or Judith Butler and examples of their use in interrogating the ‘international’.
Please note that all readings are available, and ongoing testing is conducted in the Moodle (https://dl1.cuni.cz/course/view.php?id=7560). Students must be registered in the Moodle to successfully pass this course. Last update: Ditrych Ondřej, doc. PhDr., M.Phil., Ph.D. (10.09.2022)

The final grade shall be a composite of preparatory activity (10%), class participation (10%), presentation (30%) and final exam (50%). Preparatory activity shall consist in the successful completion of brief tests on reading assigned to the entire class (A and/or B). These tests must be completed by the due date indicated in the Moodle. Presentation (10 minutes) shall consist of a critical overview of one other piece of reading (Ax or Bx) and linking it to the argument of the reading to which it is linked in the syllabus. The assignment of presentations to be prepared by students shall be done during the introductory session. (No presentations are scheduled for this session.) Handouts (1 page) are to be prepared and sent to ditrych@fsv.cuni.cz by the presenting student by email at least one day in advance. The final exam will take the form of a submitted research paper (2,000 words, excluding references). Students are expected to use relevant secondary literature to support their argument and follow all standards of academic writing when preparing their paper. They may choose one of the following topics: 1) How can the West‘s intervention in Afghanistan (2001-2021) be conceived as an ‘assemblage’ and explored from the perspective of new materialism? 2) Explore the global responses to COVID-19 from the perspective of Foucalt’s biopolitics. 3) Analyse the narratives surrounding Russia-Ukraine War (2022-) from feminist perspectives.
