@FZanettiOxford will be the academic curator.
As the official description of the course says:
“Combining theory and empirics, the course blends conceptual lectures with applied sessions. Students will develop the tools to model geoeconomic tensions, interpret real-world data, and assess the policy implications of geopolitical shifts - ultimately engaging with the frontier of contemporary research in this rapidly evolving domain.”
The course can be fun, and Oxford is lovely in early June.
