Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
This course will familiarize students with different theoretical approaches and methodological tools used to conduct scientific research in the fields of global history and global studies. The course has a twofold aim. Firstly, it will present an overview of the current theoretical-methodological debates in the field, such as the relevance of comparison for transnational history, proper application of different scales and the perils of methodological nationalism. This will be done through selected secondary literature readings. Secondly, it will provide an insight into concrete research steps and methods a researcher might utilize during her/his work. This will be done by the lecturers presenting examples from their own research experience, but also by inviting other scholars, presently doing innovative research from global perspective, as guest speakers.
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
The course grade will be based on: class participation (20 %), written assignments (20%), student presentations and the final essay (40%)
Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
The course will be conducted in English language. As the learning objectives of theory and methods classes are based on the collaborative approach and active engagement with class content, student participation in class discussions is expected and encouraged. The students are expected to engage in continuous work throughout the semester, which includes weekly reading of assigned texts, taking part in collective discussions and writing short assignments for each session. Additionally, students will be requested to present one of the readings and submit a short essay addressing a methodological question or one of the covered research methods. All reading assignments will be made available on the moodle platform.
