Miram Cochran, who will be graduating this year with two Masters from the dual program in International Relations and Diplomacy/Diplomacy and Strategic Negotiation, went to Turkey to present a paper at a conference on "Whither the 'Post-Westphalian' World? Inequalities, Conflicts and Solidarity in the Twenty-First Century". This conference was held on June 15-17 in Istanbul, at Kadir Has University, on the occasion of the 8th annual convention of the Central and East-European International Studies Association (CEEISA). Miriam's paper focused on the decline of the role of the state (and therefore the importance of Realism) while noting that it is not yet obsolete.Contact Us

From current issues in the Middle East taught together by an Iranian historian and an Israelli journalist, to NGO management taught by the director of Human Rights Watch in France, every class was fascinating and taught by some of the most impressive people I could ever have imagined. I immediately felt at home in this small but active AGS community because, although students and professors are all from different parts of the world, everyone takes the time to understand each other's perspective. Overall, I would recommend AGS to anyone with a thirst for intellectual stimulation and a drive to not only understand the world of international relations, but engage in it..
