Olivia J asked:
I am about to start college and plan on studying political science with emphasis on international relations. I’d like to live and work in a european country in the future and was wondering which countries have the best job opportunities for my field? To get a BA I am required to take foreign language anyway, but would like to start on one that will be useful to me in the future, hence the question about opportunities. Any personal experience working abroad or in the international relations/political science fields would also be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Cami M. asked:
I love to travel and I found the major International Studies and it really interested me, but all the careers off of International Studies are huge amounts of traveling. I’ve always valued family above career, so large amounts of traveling just doesn’t work for me. I love travel, and I’m fascinated by cultures, customs, and politics of other countries, as well as foreign languages. But I’d want to be w/ my family too. Should travel remain a past time for me? Or is their a job I could use my interest and travel little amounts in???? Thanks.

Bubu-chan asked: I’m majoring in International Relations with a minor in Asian Studies. I study Japanese, and I’m planning to live there next year as a study abroad student. My goal is to live there and work there after I graduate.
I know that International Relations is closely tied with government, politics, and non profit sectors, and Japan doesn’t really seem (that I’m aware of) like a hotspot for that.. I honestly can’t see myself working for the UN. Can I do other things besides that with this degree? The closest thing I can imagine doing is teaching English, which would be AWESOME.. but is that really a secure job? Can I make that into a career and not just something I do for a few years?
Do you think I made a good choice in going with Int. Relations/Asian studies?

Emily asked: Question:1
Politics is the process which determines whose values will prevail in the making of public policy. those who do prevail are said to have power. Are those with power restricted by political ideals, or does power endow them with unfettered authority to pursue private ends or the ends of a politcial party? Consider the current political environment when framing your response
Question 2:
The Constitution is designed to preserve liberty. Americans have traditionally distrusted theri perception of “big government”, and the American system puts a variety of limits on governmental authority and safeguards personal rights. Given the present-day international and domestic environment, is this emphasis still practical and workable or has it long since disappeared?

Jason61991 asked: Ok, I have been interested in politics since I can remember.
I am sixteen and very passionate about politics, more so than many adults around me.
What would be certain things that would help me attain a position in the House?
I am planning to graduate high school of course and attend college declaring my major as Political Science and International Relations.
P.S. Please don’t post if you have no info to provide. i.e. “lie. cheat. destroy lives.”
Thank You.

alen.rm asked:
As far as I know the military has been producing nothing but means for people to kill eachother and keep humanity as dumb as it gets… For centuries it has been doing a great job on that part:( Some people I’ve met tell me they want to forget every single year they spent in the military, because of the horror they’ve experienced … I experienced a war in my homeland Croatia and I believe that the military has a strange (and very dangerous) effect on the human DNA? I am not sure why I think of that… Maybe someone can figure this out? Are we going to live better, and healthier if the military is abolished? Is politics going to become healthier… and don’t we all know that wars are forbidden by international law - which means the military as an organ is somewhat deliquent. No I don’t think we all know… most of us humans lack education. And its good to know.
I figured this was going to be hard. I dreamt I won a Nobel prize peace. Oh **** what have I gotten my self into!
I accidentally posted the almost the same question because there was an error on the internet but I got different answers. On the other post a lady called me a close-minded or a stupid. I think I am a limited edition of myself. I once managed to solve a mathematical formula in 3 steps and the rest of the planet I think still knows how to solve that formula in 6 at best… Thank you, anyway, you are all just very helpful in my research! I also don’t look at the world upside down, I just look at the world a bit childish and thats the way I like it… But I dont give up easily even if this question I asked was for me to learn something and maybe just a way of growing up.

international relations is basically a combination of history, politics and a bit of economics. If not what degrees do they usually look for?
