The Haigazian University Political Science Society (HUPSS) held two events on February 26 and March 1, 2024, with themes centered around international politics, with a focus on the war in Eastern Europe.
The February 26 event focused on the Russia-Ukraine war. The student speakers, passionate for such affairs, including a guest student from Sagesse University, tackled key points such as foreign policy, political economy, and potential outcomes of the Eastern European conflict.
The event on March 1, was moderated by Dr. Alexandra Adams, Coordinator of the Political Science Department, titled “Selective Justice”. Political science students discussed and compared their Senior Seminar findings on the efficiencies and shortcomings of international law in conflicts, from Cyprus and Turkey, to the Middle East, like in Iraq and Libya, as well as current developments in Armenia. Eventually, they compared their case studies, analyzing the impact of the law applied in the outcomes of the conflicts.
These events come at a time when rapid international development is taking place in the socio-political and economic realms. Since 2022, the students of HUPSS have been interested and determined to stay up to date and host events surrounding such topics, in a civil and friendly environment.
