International Relations and Sociology

About this course

International relations and sociology together address the forces that shape collective life at every scale, from the global order of states and international institutions to the social structures and cultural dynamics that organise everyday experience. International relations examines how states, international organisations and non-state actors interact, compete and cooperate in a world that is increasingly interconnected but far from unified. Sociology provides the conceptual and empirical tools to understand the social structures, identities and inequalities that shape both domestic politics and international behaviour. At the University of Sussex, one of the world's largest dedicated International Relations departments, you will be working within a research community that pioneers new critical approaches to studying and tackling the major challenges facing our world today.
