Grasp the complexities of legal, political and ethical dilemmas

Law and Politics of International Security

Have you been studying law but want to understand the political context? Is your background in international politics, but you’re looking for insights into how the law shapes political decisions? Or is your Bachelor’s in a liberal arts subject and you want to focus on something more vocational?

Either way, this multi-disciplinary Master’s programme that combines the study of law and politics with a focus on international security may be just what you’re looking for.

War and peace - these are fascinating areas of research that have never been more pertinent than in today’s global society. Which makes the career prospects afterwards just as interesting.

Discover your Law and Politics of International Security programme

The majority of the time, law is not practiced in the courtroom – it’s practiced in the political and diplomatic sphere. Human rights NGOs, the military, governments and international organisations all invoke the language of law in political struggles and negotiations. In today’s world, it’s impossible to grasp the field of international security without an understanding of the nexus between international law and politics.

That’s why this multi-disciplinary Master’s programme is offered jointly by the Faculty of Law and the Faculty of Social Sciences, whose staff and teaching are deeply interconnected. So you can expect a unique perspective combining both law and politics.
