Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
This course has two main goals: first, it seeks to situate modern social theory in global perspective, and second, it aims to introduce recent literature from social theory exploring the international and the global. The course will focus on a variety of theorists and theories from around the world, opening up to scholars beyond the Western canon. Specifically, the course will focus on topics such as modernity and coloniality, materiality and epistemic structures of current socio-political order, and the prospects of rethinking global politics through critical lens.The course draws partially on the materials of the Global Social Theory project (https://globalsocialtheory.org/, CC BY-NC-ND 3.0)
