Poslední úprava: PhDr. Malvína Krausz Hladká, Ph.D. (05.02.2018)
The assessment for the students will be a 500-word self-reflection of their experiences on the module. This could include their expectations at the outset and how they were met. It could include what they liked or disliked, and why. It could also include comment on things that were not included that they would have liked to have covered. Lecture Programme and Readings
The text that will cover the first three sessions is A. Jones (2016); Britain and the European Union (Edinburgh University Press, second edition). https://books.google.co.uk/books?hl=en&lr=&id=oZw7DwAAQBAJ&oi=fnd&pg=PP5&dq=A+Jones+Britain+and+the+EU&ots=Y3Z6OBb7Rq&sig=0fQKyqO2br4wLvTTFR-dHx5fcso#v=onepage&q=A%20Jones%20Britain%20and%20the%20EU&f=false
I have included a few articles and their websites for this reading list. I hope students are able to access the web links.
