SOCOG1003 Ideologies in the Modern World
"This course will prepare students for further studies in the humanities and social sciences. The course will provide students with an introduction to those ideologies that shape our modern world and the way we see it, including: liberalism, conservatism, Marxism, democratic socialism, nationalism, anarchism, feminism, environmentalism, and neo-liberalism. Students will learn about the ideological lenses through which we view broad social categories such as gender, race, class and sexuality, as well as the ideologies that underpin our approaches to economics and politics. Students will be introduced to a framework for analysing ideology which focuses on approaches to: human nature, freedom and social vision. Students will be encouraged to examine the historical evolution of political ideas and movements, and their contemporary relevance. "
