Overview
How is political authority organised and exercised throughout the world? What difference does it make to live in different kinds of political systems? And how can methods of comparison help you make sense of politics and government in different states?
Join us as we explore these questions and others on our Comparative Government short course. We will also examine and compare various political systems with a strong focus on understanding these systems from a social and historical perspective.
Assessment is via two 2000-word essays (45% each) and seminar attendance (10%).
