Mae Dr Emmanuel Siaw yn Ddarlithydd Cysylltiadau Rhyngwladol. Mae ganddo PhD mewn Cysylltiadau Rhyngwladol o Brifysgol Royal Holloway Llundain a gradd MPhil yn y Gwyddorau Gwleidyddol o Brifysgol Ghana. Cyn ymuno â Phrifysgol Abertawe, roedd yn addysgu ym Mhrifysgol Ghana, Prifysgol Royal Holloway Llundain a Study Group UK. Bu hefyd yn gynorthwy-ydd ymchwil maes ac yn swyddog ar gyfer sefydliadau cymdeithas sifil yn Ghana, gan gynnwys Ghana Centre for Democratic Development (CDD-Ghana) a Konrad Adenauer Stiftung Foundation, Ghana.

Mae gwaith ymchwil Emmanuel yn canolbwyntio'n bennaf ar effaith Affricanaidd mewn cysylltiadau rhyngwladol, yn archwilio sut mae elfennau newidiol megis ideolegau, pŵer meddal a mynegiannau diwylliannol yn llywio cysylltiadau diplomyddol, cynghreiriau ac ymgysylltiad rhyngwladol taleithiau Affricanaidd. Er mai cysylltiadau rhyngwladol Affrica yw prif ffocws ymchwil graidd Emmanuel, mae hefyd ganddo ddiddordeb mawr yn nhirlun gwleidyddol domestig Affrica. Felly, mae rhan o'i ddiddordebau ymchwil yn canolbwyntio ar sut mae gwleidyddiaeth ddomestig yn llywio polisi tramor ac i'r gwrthwyneb. Ar hyn o bryd mae'n cynnal prosiect ymchwil ryngddisgyblaethol ar wleidyddiaeth cerddoriaeth yn Affrica.

Diddordebau Addysgu

Mae gan Emmanuel brofiad addysgu helaeth yn y gwyddorau gwleidyddol a chysylltiadau rhyngwladol, sy'n cynnwys sbectrwm eang o is-feysydd, gan gynnwys damcaniaeth cysylltiadau rhyngwladol, gwleidyddiaeth y tu hwnt i'r Gorllewin, gwleidyddiaeth datblygu, gwleidyddiaeth etholiadol a democratiaeth, gwleidyddiaeth hunaniaeth yn Affrica, meithrin heddwch ar ôl gwrthdaro a chyfiawnder trawsnewidiol yn Affrica. Mae wedi addysgu mewn sefydliadau addysg uwch yn Ghana a'r DU. Ar hyn o bryd, mae'n addysgu modiwlau israddedig ac ôl-raddedig ar gyflwyniad i gysylltiadau rhyngwladol. Mae ef bob amser yn awyddus i ymgymryd â gwaith goruchwylio ymchwil ôl-raddedig wrth addysgu, gan groesawu myfyrwyr i drafod prosiectau ymchwil posib a chydweithrediadau.

PO-126 Introduction to International Relations

This course offers an introduction to the study of International Relations (IR). The aim is to lay some of the conceptual and historical groundwork necessary for the study of politics at the global level, and to offer a systematic introductory overview of the field. Students will gain a broad understanding of the debates and issues that are key to IR. In addition to exploring fundamental concepts such as sovereignty, anarchy, power, and global governance, the module encourages students to take a critical look on world politics, and we will consider themes such as race, gender (in)equality, and colonialism. Students will learn to apply concepts, understand the history and evolution of international order and become familiar with some of the current global challenges related to human rights, climate change, and the rise of non-Western powers. They will also be introduced to the main theoretical approaches that are used to make sense of world politics. By the end of the module, students will have developed the foundational knowledge and skills necessary to further explore and analyse various aspects of IR. To develop students general research and study skills, the module will also include training sessions on library research and essay writing. For many students, this will be the first time engaging with the subject. IR is a diverse, complex, and exciting field of study, and we have sought to develop a course that is both accessible, engaging, and intellectually stimulating. We hope that you will enjoy the module, and that it will spark enthusiasm for the study of international relations.
PO-239 Moralities of War and Peace

This module considers the morality and ethics that shape war and peace. It takes as its starting point the inevitability of war and the realist assumption that war occupies a distinct category of human experience that even defies our moral concerns. It then considers the challenge to this and how it is possible both to think about war in moral terms and to possibly make a distinction between a `just¿ and `unjust¿ war. Taking the influential `Just War Theory¿ as its `guide¿ to the moralities of war and peace, it considers dilemmas concerning justice in the lead up to war, in the conduct of war, and the establishment of a `just¿ peace. It also considers the possible impact of international law in translating our moral concerns into practical steps, as well as recent challenges to Just War Theory, including the possibility of a truly humanitarian intervention as well as concerns over terrorism and new tactics and weaponry such as drones. This module concludes with a reflection on the inevitability of peace, and invites students to think how, if at all, we may attempt to limit and constrain the very worst aspects of war and make it `just¿.
PO-3328 Law, War and Empire in World Politics

The development and expansion of international law has been one of the most significant developments in the post-World War II era, penetrating all aspects of world politics, from the conduct of war to the protection of human rights. This module offers students a critical perspective on the role and origins of international law, exploring how laws and institutions have been entangled with structural inequalities and hierarchical cultural and political orders. It imagines international law as a product of both progressive moral development and practices of violence and domination. Starting with the role of international law in the construction and maintenance of Empire and colonialism in 19th, it traces and explore how legacies of exclusion feature in contemporary laws, institutions, and practices. This will provide students with the opportunity to explore how notions of culture and hierarchy have been generative forces in different issue areas, including international criminal justice, humanitarian intervention, and the war on terror.
PO-M35 Approaches to International Relations

The module explores a variety of approaches to the study of internation relations. It focuses on key issues which have become central to the sunject, notably the changing states system and the emergence of major non state actors, economic globalisation and security studies. It also examines key theoretical approaches, notably realism, liberalism and Marxism; Neo-realism and neo-Liberalism; and reflectivist critiques of rationalism, including constructivism, critical theory, post-structuralism and feminism.
