Anotace

Poslední úprava: Dr. Linda Monsees (22.08.2023)

The seminar starts in the 2nd week of the semester.

This course introduces contemporary issues in Critical Studies following the assumption that many contemporary security threats work through dispersed and decentered practices; this means that they are present in everyday practices and do not necessarily revolve around national security politics and institutions. This observation has methodological as well as normative consequences of how we need to approach the study of security. Questions of how to study how the everyday is shot through with security practices or how questions of justice and democracy are interlinked with security politics are thus central to this course.

Cíl předmětu

Poslední úprava: Dr. Linda Monsees (22.08.2023)

This short course on security studies follows two aims. First, it introduces students to debates in European Security Studies and main concepts, ideas and distinctions that were influential over the past two decades and influence scholarship today. Second, we will practice a set of academic skills such as understanding academic arguments, presenting arguments and critically assessing academic positions.

Metody výuky

Poslední úprava: Dr. Linda Monsees (12.09.2023)

The class will be mostly based on plenary debates, group work and small individual assignments. The seminar is thus best for students wanting to attend in person and not via Teams as there wont be many lecture components.
