This undergraduate level course examines Israel's geographic location in the Middle East its Western orientation the inherent tension between the two; while highlighting Israel's concept of national security. This course examines the traditional and non-traditional approaches to foreign policy within the paradigm of International Relations, as well as the policy instruments available to Israel as it dealt with global changes such as the Cold War, the end of the Cold War, economic globalization, terrorism, and local insurgencies to name a few. Each of these topics and other major international events changed Israel's position and status. The course also examines the multidimensional nature of political, economic, and cultural relations between Israel and the United States since 1948 in creating Grand Strategy. In particular, this the multidimensional nature suggests that the definition of strategic interests and assessment about how best to pursue them are, in practiced, shaped by cultural and ideological constructions, and domestic political factors. - Omezení zápisu do předmětu
