Background

Scope and content:

The materials consist of course handouts and videorecordings of lectures.

Stanford has been touched by the events of September 11 in countless ways. As a country, we have declared a war against terrorism. As individuals, we struggle with sorrow and anger, with compassion for victims in the U.S. but also compassion for victims in Afghanistan. As a generation, we now have an event that has indelibly marked our private and civic consciousness.

In conjunction with the Department of International Relations, some of Stanford's most prominent political organizations will jointly sponsor a new course being offered in the winter quarter to focus on the most salient questions we must ask ourselves in the wake of September 11. Discussions within our organizations and with others have demonstrated keen student interest in a course that would address why and how our world and our generation have changed since terrorist attacks struck Washington and New York. Student-initiated IR-193 "Understanding September 11: Its Causes, Context and Consequences," will feature student-led discussion sections, as well as weekly lectures by experts on a wide array of topics. Students will have the option of taking the course for either 1 or 2 units. The emphasis will be on dialogue not only between students and faculty, but amongst students themselves.
