Our MA brings together social theory, political theory and philosophy. You learn about the history of social and political thought and study political and social movements. You’ll cover both historical traditions and contemporary developments.
This is an interdisciplinary course. We bridge subject boundaries and use both empirical and normative analysis. You’ll learn from our faculty’s specialised knowledge of selected areas in contemporary thought and the major European historical tradition.
Our research strengths include:
social theory (especially Hegel, Marx and Frankfurt School critical theory)
recent democratic, socialist and environmentalist thought and practice
the history of political, social and economic thought
the philosophy of social science and the sociology of knowledge
Marx, Hegel and Marxism
Kant and German Idealism
philosophy of race and racialisation.
