Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to introduce students to the current repertoire of concepts and theories currently used by interdisciplinary social sciences. Particular emphasis will be given to those approaches that have influenced and influenced anthropologists in conceptualizing field research topics and allow the theoretical framing of ethnography as a reveal of global tendencies in local processes and constellations.
Thanks to the course, students will be equipped with a repertoire of knowledge that will enable them to respond to current discussions concerning space and identities, power and discourse or cultures (s) and globalization. The course will extend their theoretical framework for locating their own research topics in contemporary social science discourse.
