POL3843W: Night Raids, Detention, Torture, and Drones: Methods of War
3 CreditsIntellectual CommunityWriting Intensive
In this class, we will be examining the use of particular tactics of war-night raids, detention, torture, and drones-as deployed, primarily, but not only, in the US-led war on terror. The purpose of this class is to grapple with the fundamental questions such tactics raise about what is right in war, and the costs and consequences of such tactics on both those who choose to use them and those that are targeted by them.
