Course Syllabus

Abstract

This seminar offers a cross-disciplinary perspective on political power, institutions, civic movements, and their socio-cultural context. It draws mainly from sociology, political science, and cultural studies and will be most useful to students interested in how modern societies are organized and negotiated through politics, and how this can be studied. Key to this seminar is reading and discussing original research papers. As a result, the students will expand their knowledge of the subject and their skills of critical reading, participating in discussions, and writing abstracts of academic papers. The seminar starts with a discussion of elections and turnout, proceeding to the analysis of collective action problems, and then an introductory discussion of survey experiments. The final part focuses on the politics of memory and academic writing. The seminar is intended for students who attended research seminars of the BA in Sociology and Social Informatics in the previous years.
