The course explores what recent changes to the global cultural and political landscape mean for individuals and groups in terms of their ability to access human rights (social, economic and cultural, as well as political and civil); it provides students with advanced level sociological knowledge of the concepts of globalisation, citizenship, identity and human rights, as well as a critical understanding of their application in a range of discourses (political, legal, academic and popular); the course is particularly attractive to social science and arts graduates who wish to pursue careers in the NGO sector, academia, the civil service or journalism, as it both provides advanced level sociological knowledge of debates on human rights, citizenship, globalisation and identities, and offers opportunities, through elective modules in other schools, to develop specialist knowledge and understanding of post-conflict cultures, human rights law and/or of media and globalisation, rights and identities.
Core modules: globalisation, citizenship and identity (30 credits); human rights and modern slavery (30 credits); civil society (the role of NGOs, 15credits); research methods and the dissertation (15 credits); plus optional modules may include: migration (mobility, multiculturalism and mobilisation); sovereignty and conflict; post-colonialisms; international humanitarian law; terrorism and insurgencies; transnationalism.
