Email:  HYPERLINK "mailto:lray2@lsu.edu" lray2@lsu.edu   Course Objectives: This course will introduce students to the political systems in European national states. We will examine the diversity of European political life by contrasting the political traditions and institutions of the four largest European states, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, and Italy. The course will also examine several aspects of European politics which are shared across many of the nations of Europe such as the role of political parties, the creation of multiparty coalitions, and the divide between government and opposition. While this course focuses on politics within states, Europe has not always been organized along these lines, and the role of the state is being questioned today. The course will close with an examination of the emergence of states in Europe, and their future in an era of globalization and regional unification. Requirements and Grading: 2 Map Quizzes (5% each): There are two “pop” quizzes during the course of the semester. The first, in February, will cover Europe in 1914, the second, in May, will cover the 25 member nations of the European Union in May 2004. Midterm Exam, and Cumulative Final Exam (30% each): There will be two exams for this course, these will be cumulative, and students are responsible for material from all readings and lectures prior to the exam. Make up exams are strongly discouraged, and any student who needs to take a make up exam must contact me 24 hours before the normally scheduled exam. Students who ask for a make up after the regularly scheduled exam must obtain written permission from the Dean's office. Party Politics Simulation (1 background paper worth 10%, 2 group projects worth 10% each): Groups of students will play the part of political parties in a simulation of politics in a parliamentary system. Each group will write a brief election manifesto for their political party. Students will then study the election manifestos of the other parties and write a paper identifying potential coalition partners and possible compromise positions on the issues covered in the manifestos. The winning coalition will then present a common program to the class for its approval. Parties which did not make it into the winning coalition will discuss why they were unsuccessful in the negotiations. We will hold a number of “sessions” of parliament where the government can enact its manifesto promises. Textbooks: Readings will be drawn from 2 books available at the Union and area bookstores: *Politics in Europe 3rd edition by M. Donald Hancock et al. Chatham House. ISBN: 1-56643-039-9 *Representative Government in Modern Europe 3rd edition by Michael Gallagher, Michael Laver, and Peter Mair. McGraw Hill. ISBN 0-07-232267-5 Students are also expected to keep up with current events in Europe. Three excellent sources are the news magazine The Economist, the New York Times, and National Public Radio.
