Detailed description of content |
This course covers advanced research on global justice campaigns and advocacy. It gives students a historical and theoretical overview of the development and increasingly global nature of social movements and the moral, ideological, and political implications of this development. This will include advanced methodological and theoretical knowledge of the groups operating across borders and beyond the reach of governments. Through case studies from different parts of the world and recourse to theories of civil society and global justice, students will discuss how we can make sense of ‘action from below’ in relation to some of the most important social movements today dealing with pressing issues such as the climate, migration, feminism, peace, and human rights. |
Teaching and working methods |
The course is based on lectures, but will also encompass other forms of teaching and work, including group work, exercises, student presentations, peer feedback and field trips, as well as other practical activities. |
Expected work effort (ECTS-declaration) |
10 ECTS (270 hours) |
Form of examination |
The examination is in two parts:
The assignments will be refused examination if one or both of them exceed the maximum size. A single overall grade is awarded. The two assignments have equal weight in the assessment. Failure to submit the first assignment on time will result in the student not being allowed to take the 48-hour examination, and one examination attempt will be deemed to have been used up. |
Form of re-examination |
Re-examination: The student must submit the first assignment within two weeks of the conclusion of the course. Previous assignments cannot be reused, and new questions may be set. The second assignment in the examination is a 48-hour written assignment, and is taken in the re-examination period. Re-examination otherwise has the same size requirements as the ordinary examination. |
