Course description
  • 4 weeks
  • States are increasingly using remote control methods, such as drones, private military companies and special operations units, to engage in activities traditionally performed by conventional armed forces.
  • This course looks at the reasons behind this trend including security privatisation and risk aversion among politicians and the public. It also studies the opportunities that remote methods provide to circumvent the law.
  • We’ll ask how our understanding of war and security is changing, and how states in the future will ensure our security through such non-traditional means.
  • Examination of the philosophical, ethical and cultural challenges raised by remote control warfare
  • In-depth case studies focusing on Pakistan, Yemen, Afghanistan, Libya and Iraq to study the real-life implications of the move towards remote control warfare
  • Study of American, British and European motives for the use of remote means to fight wars
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the rationale for the recent trend towards remote control warfare
  • Exhibit an awareness of the receiving-end consequences of remote control warfare
  • Display an understanding of the ethical implications of remote control warfare
  • This course will take an in-depth look at this subject, so you’ll need some pre-existing knowledge of the technical and theoretical issues covered.
  • University of Bath
  • The University of Bath is one of the UK’s leading universities both in terms of research and our reputation for excellence in teaching, learning and graduate prospects.
