Hey Political Science Students,

Do you ever wonder why the United States is the world leader in COVID deaths?

Do you understand how disasters change the face of domestic and international conflict?

In an era when climate change promises more destructive storms, deadly heat waves, catastrophic flooding and widespread disease, these questions are more pressing than ever.

Take Disaster Politics (POLI 468) this winter with Dr. Grodsky and discover answers.
