This video introduces INR2002 (Intro to International Relations) students to two key concepts in international security: national security and human security. In this video political science instructor Barbara Howe shows how critical theories have reshaped security studies in international relations by questioning some of the assumptions of traditional theories such as realism and liberalism (both considered to be rationalist approaches in political science).
