About this course

Our approach to the study of politics differs somewhat from more traditional approaches in that it begins with groups and movements that are often regarded as outsiders, together with their ideas, interests, and demands, and only then moves towards understandings of the formal political system; important themes, which run through all levels, are the development of a critical understanding of democracy, the issue of access to power and political resources, and the unequal distribution of power; important areas studied will be new social movements, environmentalism, issue groups, and human 'rights'; the sociology strand introduces key sociological theories and concepts, helps students to understand social change, examines different perspectives in social theory and explores contemporary issues that cause political concern and controversy.
