Title |
Frontiers of Political Science Research |
Description |
In this class, we will discuss cutting-edge research from invited political scientists, covering various fields, including international relations, political economy, environmental politics, public policy, European politics, political behavior, and comparative politics. Students will both gain a broader understanding of political science research and go more in-depth in the analysis of specific strands of the literature. We will discuss the theoretical perspectives, main arguments, findings, and methodological approaches of the covered research. The topical basis of the seminar are the presentations of the guest speakers (and the papers they presented), plus a reading list complementing the presented research. In several sessions, we will discuss the work of the guest speakers, both to prepare and post process the presentations. Students will write a report on the research of one guest speaker and analyze in more detail some of the literature covered in the seminar with a term paper. Active participation and preparation of the weekly session is required for this seminar.
