Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This is the class accompanying the Master seminar on Transcultural North Korea. We will be reading a mix of theoretical texts to gain more understanding into the concept and methodologies involved to make a "transcultural" analysis, while also reading texts that showcase a transcultural reading of North Korea by recent scholars.

Course Objectives
• At the end of the course, students will have a better understanding of the concept of transculturalism.
• Students will gain insight into how the concept and methodologies used in Transcultural Studies can be applied to North Korea.
• Students will gain more critical reading and analytic skills when dealing with theoretical texts that are slightly outside their field of expertise.
• Have acquired more knowledge on the recent themes and topics that are researched in relation to North Korea.
