  1. Crises and responses Unit 4: Area of Study 2

  2. Study Design – Key Terms • Crisis Diplomacy • International Cooperation • Sustainability • Utility of Violence

  3. Study Design • Intra and Interstate Conflict • Causes • Responses and proposed solutions from key global actors • Challenges to effective resolutions • War as an instrument of state policy, intervention and occupation, peace-keeping, the notion of ‘just war’, prosecuting war and war crimes in international law

  4. Study Design • Economic Instability • Causes • Responses and proposed solutions from key global actors • Challenges to effective resolutions • Capitalism’s apparent boom-bust cycle; the concept of market failure; the vulnerabilities of economic globalisation seen in the GFC and related contemporary crises; the role of he government as a stabiliser and regulator of last resort through at least one of the following: the G20, the EU, the IMF

  5. Crisis Diplomacy • Negotiations between actors in the global political arena in response to crisis, most commonly concerning conflicts and natural disasters, but also economic and health crises. • Example: 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.

  6. International Cooperation • When global actors work together to achieve common ideals and goals. • Example: G20 summits on GFC, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)

  7. Sustainability • Seeks to organise states and their economies so that current needs are met while not jeopardising meeting these needs in the future.

  8. Utility of Violence • Violence employed as a means of achieving ones political objectives, commonly witnessed in global politics through inter-state war. Violence is purposeful and organised. Traditionally perceived as an instrument of state power, violence and threatened acts of violence are increasingly utilised by terrorist groups as a means of achieving their objectives.
