Theorizing Society & Politics Today

Ffeithiau’r Modiwl

Rhedir gan School of History, Law and Social Sciences

20.000 Credydau neu 10.000 Credyd ECTS

Semester1

Trefnydd: Dr Marcel Stoetzler

Amcanion cyffredinol

  1. To develop the ability to use the vocabulary of contemporary social and political theory in appropriate ways.
  2. To cultivate comparative awareness of how a range of contemporary social and political theorists conceptualize 'structure' and 'agency'.
  3. To explain the influence of trends in social and political philosophy (including Critical Theory, feminism and postmodernism) on recent sociological theory.
  4. To demonstrate how social context influences social and political thinking.

Cynnwys cwrs

This module explores the origins, nature and significance of social and political theories and concepts developed in the 20th century. It examines the strengths and weaknesses of such approaches as Critical Theory (such as Adorno, Horkheimer, Marcuse), post-structuralism (such as Foucault, Bauman, Lyotard), and feminist 'standpoint' and 'intersectionality' theory. It considers a range of theories which seek to address knowledge, power and subordination in terms of gender divisions and differences of class, race and/or sexuality. The module seeks to ask questions about the relationship between social and political theory, social action, movements, modernity, capitalism, social change, research and everyday life. The module aims to encourage students to reflect on their own position as participants in social and political interaction.

Seminar

The module is delivered via a weekly two-hour session consisting of a mixture of lecture and seminar elements. The lecture topics are based on presentations of key authors and themes grouped to reflect key developments and controversies in contemporary social and political theory. The seminar elements are designed to cultivate skills in reading theory and communicating theoretical ideas. The formats include close textual interpretation, debate, and discussion of set topics related to the lectures. Seminars will include presentations by students and tasks designed to assist in the preparation of assignments. Regular independent reading of difficult texts and independent study supported by Blackboard is an important aspect of the learning experience. This will be complemented by individual tutorial support for assessment work.
