Il corso si propone di definire e approfondire il concetto di sicurezza militare, così come si è sviluppato dopo la Seconda Guerra Mondiale. L'arco temporale è determinato dalla rivoluzione ineluttabile che la scoperta e l'uso delle armi nucleari ha introdotto, sia in termini di dottrina militare che di politica di potere. Partendo da una riflessione sulle ragioni del precoce fallimento della sicurezza collettiva, il corso si concentrerà innanzitutto sulle caratteristiche cruciali della sicurezza in un sistema internazionale bipolare, facendo una netta distinzione tra gli Stati che fanno parte di un'alleanza multilaterale e quelli che ne sono esclusi. Prenderà quindi in considerazione le principali sfide poste alla sicurezza militare dalle nuove minacce emergenti, che si vanno consolidando dopo la fine della Guerra Fredda.

Programma
Il corso si concentra sugli aspetti più importanti che la sicurezza ha assunto nel sistema internazionale dalla fine della seconda guerra mondiale. Nell'adottare un approccio storico, il corso intende offrire agli studenti una panoramica e una disamina di un processo che è insieme effetto e propulsore di un paradigma di azione politica. La fine della seconda guerra mondiale è stata selezionata come il punto di partenza dell'analisi soprattutto perché essa costituisce l'avvio dell'era degli studi sulla sicurezza negli Stati uniti e nel mondo occidentale.Il corso è impartito in lingua inglese.
