Trusted teacher: Hello ! Having just passed the Sciences Po joint competitive exam, I would like to make all of the Tremplin Prep courses offered by Sciences Po available for the joint competitive exams. Having had the chance to benefit from it this year, I decided to put all the courses on a Google Drive and share it with those in need. The hourly rate indicated here is not representative, I was obliged to complete this part. I provide access to this file for €20 (using the payment method of your choice). The registration fees for this Prep amount to €558 on their site, I would like to be able to benefit those who cannot afford it and reduce as best I can the inequality of opportunities in this elitist training. You will therefore find 5 files: - History - Contemporary question (QC) - English - Videoconferences - Kiosk Even inside these folders are: - Presentation of the test and training (2 PDF + bibliography) - Annals (since 2018 + corrected) - Courses (14 PDFs of around ten pages each in History and 10 PDFs of around twenty pages in QC) - Homework (subjects + standard answers) - Correction reports (videos) and best copies of students of 2022 - Methodology and applied methodology - Worksheets (course recommendations, also several PDFs with 10 pages each) - Video capsules (document containing Zoom links leading to videoconferences on all subjects) - Monthly French and English prep magazines (30 x 12 pages) - Grammar sheets - Thematic sheets Videoconferences between students were also recorded and made available to you, in particular with Marc Fesnau, Minister of Agriculture and Food Sovereignty, Jean-Pierre Poulain, sociologist, Najat Vallaud-Belkacem, France director of the NGO ONE or again Sébastien Abis, director of DEMETER and associated researcher at IRIS. The price is significantly reduced because by not taking the online training, you will not be able to benefit from a personal correction of your work, but also because the theme of Fear is no longer on the program this year in the Contemporary Question itself if the food remains there all the same. I left the topics on fear there so that you still have an idea of what is being asked of you in the test! The file contains a total of more than a hundred documents, I have tried to organize it as best as possible and I also volunteer to answer all your questions about the test as far as possible by giving you my contact information. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, my goal is above all to allow access to the same documents as those who have the means to benefit from them, I therefore remain at your disposal! :)
Political science
Trusted teacher: The course gives an introduction to international politics from a theoretical perspective. The discipline of international relations looks at political interactions at the global level. In the context of this course, we will look at states as the most important actors in international politics, although we will also look at the influence of, for example, international governmental organizations (such as the United Nations) and non-governmental organizations (such as Amnesty International or terrorist groups like the Islamic State). How can the behaviour of states and other actors be explained? This question is central to the course. Assumptions from various schools of thought, such as realism, liberalism, and constructivism are discussed extensively. In the course, the most important insights that these theories have presented are dealt with on the basis of concrete examples. Therefore, attention will also be given to specific issues and developments in international politics, such as globalization, regionalism, terrorism, war and peace, human rights, poverty and development, climate change and nuclear non-proliferation. Course Objectives Goal 1: to introduce key issues, theories, and debates in international relations Goal 2: to apply this knowledge to understand international relations How to identify and relate the core elements comprising scientific research articles in the fields of political science and international relations. How to find literature and correctly refer to literature in academic texts.
