	The Government and Politics of Russia
		As should be obvious from the title, this class is an advanced political science course focusing on the politics of Russia and the former Soviet Union.
		Within the field of political science, this course falls within the subfield of comparative politics, although we will turn our attention to issues dealing with international relations on certain occasions, particularly regarding relations among the former Soviet republics.
		The political science students are already familiar with such topics as political system types, electoral politics, institutional design, etc. While this would seem to put the Russian/Slavic studies students at a disadvantage, this latter group usually has more knowledge of the area under investigation, sometimes combined with language skills and/or personal experience in the region.
