• PO-3319 Researching Politics 1

  Researching Politics (RP) provides students with the skills that underlie the process of conducting and communicating cutting-edge research in Politics and International Relations. RP works by creating topic groups, each comprised of 8-10 students. Each group will follow a bespoke course set out by their topic tutor, guiding them through the literature in a substantive research area. Students are invited to select a list of preferred options in the first teaching week of the term. This list is then used to assign students to topics and group sessions run from the second week of teaching onwards. Alongside the topic-specific teaching, there is a general lecture series focusing on discovering, analysing and presenting complex information. The lecture series also focuses on dealing with the ups and downs of working as part of a team.

• PO-3320 Researching Politics 2

  Researching Politics 2 (RP2) is the follow-on module from RP1 and it acts as the culmination for the subject knowledge and transferable skills developed in that module. RP2 puts the creative emphasis in the hands of the students, with the module convenor and topic tutors giving guidance and feedback to facilitate the realisation of research conceived, developed, executed and presented by students. In this way, it tries to approximate the worlds of further study and work into which students will be progressing following the completion of their degree schemes. It is a module where all of the summative assessments are comprised of group work, although individual marks can be varied depending on each student¿s performance. Students are also required to submit an individual self-assessment, detailing what they have learned about their own strengths and weaknesses on the basis of the sustained group work. In RP2, you will extend and deepen the research undertaken in RP1 and continue to meet regularly in order to share ideas, opinions and sources in your groups. These meetings will include several where the topic tutor provides guidance and feedback as well as those where the meetings are student-led.

• PO-3325 Capitalism and Justice

  This module unpacks the fundamental political dilemmas that underpin capitalist economies today. These include questions like: should states control the production of money? Do markets deliver social justice? Is the ownership of property a form of power over others? And is economic inequality the inevitable price for prosperity? The module draws on work in political philosophy, economic sociology, and political economy, in order to examine, and debate the political problems at the centre of our economic practices and institutions. While drawing on a range of empirical studies, the focus of the module is on developing the conceptual and theoretical competences needed for informed normative (ethical and political) analysis of contemporary capitalist practices and institutions. The aim is to give students the resources to develop strong arguments for their own political conclusions on these topics.

• PO-3338 Global Environmental Politics

  Environment is vital for humans. It is key for their livelihoods, cultural and religious practices, health and wellbeing in their everyday lives. It is also essential for national and global development agendas, as it provides space and materials to facilitate industrialisation, trade, agriculture and urbanisation. Environment has also become part of national and international security agendas with the visible impacts of climate change on mere existence of small island states and coastal regions as well as increasing global competition over raw materials and energy sources and shared (transboundary) sources. Over past few decades, global environment, and climate has been changing at an unprecedented rate, thanks to rapid industrialisation and urbanisation and anthropogenic activities. Issues ranging from increasing number of climate extremes such as droughts, flood and heatwaves, extinction of species, ocean acidification, depletion of ozone layer, to extractive industries-led environmental degradation and conflicts over natural resources, have become a new ¿normal¿ in our daily lives at multiple levels. Addressing these issues also has become a significant part of political agendas, requiring efforts and commitment of several actors at multiple scales. This module introduces students to complexities of global environmental challenges and politics. The first part of the module will enable students to learn roles of different actors in global environmental politics, from individuals to international and transnational actors as well as familiarising them with key conceptual and theoretical debates (such as development, justice/inequalities and security) shaping the discipline. In the second part of the module, students will learn politics of specific environmental challenges (such as climate change, water and extractive industries) at multiple scales.

• PO-M63 Rights-based Approaches to Development

  Rights-based approaches to development (RBAD) are now part of a new orthodoxy with respect to policy and practice in support of international development. They have become popular in part because they provide a language for analysing poverty as a complex and multi-dimensional phenomena and for analysing governance as a process that responds directly to people¿s needs, entitlements and rights. They direct attention to aspects of poverty which have traditionally been neglected in development policy at national and international levels. This module examines the background to rights-based approaches to development. Particular attention will is paid to the four separate arenas in which RBADs are now evident: development practice, development discourse; the policy commitments of donors and governments; and the obligations imposed on donors and governments by international human rights law. The module examines the implications of rights-based approaches for development policy and practice in the context of two contradictory phenomena: a system of international relations based on the principle of state sovereignty and the complex phenomenon of `globalis ation¿. Issues that arise in relation to the rights of indigenous peoples and children will be used as ways of examining the situation of vulnerable groups.
