As taught Autumn Semester 2010.

This module will focus on the treatment of war or the representation of war in art broadly conceived: war stories, war photography, war paintings, war films, war music, even war architecture - war memorials and war museums. It will seek to ask in what ways such works contribute to our understanding of war, and by extension our understanding of international relations. How effective are they? Can works of the imagination - works of art - reach parts that other works cannot reach? How? What strategies do they employ? Do they have to be explicit? Do they have to be easy to read (or watch or listen to)? In what ways are we affected by them? What difference can they make? 

Module Codes: M14060 (20 credits) / M14061 (15 credits) 
  
Suitable for study at: Postgraduate Level 

Professor Alex Danchev, School of Politics and International Relations 

Alex Danchev is an unorthodox Professor of International Relations. As in his research, he feels it is important to be able to cross traditional disciplinary boundaries. International Relations is an interdisciplinary subject in itself, embracing history, politics, law, economics, philosophy, geopraphy and sociology. Alex Danchev is especially interested in bringing art and culture into play - integrating works of the imagination, broadly conceived, into the study of politics and international relations. His contribution to the second-year module on Power and International Order, for example, includes a study of Joseph Conrad's novel, Heart of Darkness, as well as On War by Clausewitz, and The Communist Manifesto, by Marx and Engels. His MA module on Art and War includes a study of painting and photography, as well as a visit to the Imperial War Museum North at Salford Quays - to explore the building (by Daniel Libeskind) as well as its contents.

His third-year module on Political Biography, co-taught with Ion Trewin, a Special Professor in the School, featured prominently in the Times Higher Education magazine. It includes a visit to the National Portrait Gallery in London, to study portraits of prime ministers, and also an element of creative writing - the 'forward obituary' of somone not quite dead. It was primarily for this module that he received a Dearing Award for Teaching and Learning in 2009.

In seminars and tutorials, he places most emphasis on student participation in small-group work, where the quality and depth of the discussion is paramount - student-centred learning rather than teacher-led lecturing. Remaining silent is not an option in these seminars; but it is equally important to have something relevant and cogent to say. They demand preparation and reflection. If it works well, the outcome is a more satisfying experience.

He teaches a broad range of undergraduate and postgraduate modules.

BURN brings final year undergraduate research work to public view in a professional and relevant way. The students represented here have risen to the challenges of doing rigorous research and presenting their work to a wider audience. Their articles show the distance they have travelled during their studies. They also demonstrate the inquiry and critical thinking skills that have been developed. As graduates, they will be able to exploit these valuable skills in their careers, whether they continue in science or whatever path they may choose.

Suitable for undergraduate study

It can be viewed online or downloaded as a zip file.

As taught Semester 1 2009/2010. 

There are no pre-requisites to taking this module and in particular there is no assumption of any prior knowledge of economics. For those who have taken A-level economics or any other version of economics some of the module content will appear familiar to you. However, the methods of analysis and the approach to teaching will quite probably be very different to anything experienced before and thus it is very important that good lecture notes are made, essays are thoughtfully written and background reading is undertaken. If not, then a degree level of understanding of the material will not be achieved. 

This module is suitable for study at undergraduate level 1

It can be viewed online or downloaded as a zip file.

As taught Autumn Semester 2010/2011.

This module introduces students to the ideas of key thinkers in the history of western political thought. We look carefully at the canonical works of five thinkers in the history of political thought: Plato, Aristotle, Niccolo Machiavelli, Thomas Hobbes and John Locke. The module considers the impact of these thinkers on ancient and modern political thought and practices, with reference to the different contexts in which they wrote. We consider the way in which these thinkers have approached the ‘big’ questions and ideas that lie behind everyday political life.  

The module examines questions such as: What is justice?  What is the purpose of government?  What is the best form of government? Is the state ever entitled to restrict our freedom to do what we want? Why should we obey the state? When is it right to have a revolution? 

Module Code and Credits: M11001 (10 credits) M11151 (15 credits) 

Suitable for study at: Undergraduate level 1

Dr David Stevens, School of Politics and International Relations 

Dr Stevens' research is focussed primarily within the area of contemporary normative political philosophy. Specifically, he is concerned with issues of socio-economic justice within liberal democratic societies. 

Modules taught: Social Justice (level 3); War and Massacre (level 2); Justice Beyond Borders: Theories of International and Intergenerational Justice (level D). 

Areas of Research Supervision: Social justice; educational; justice; Rawlsian political philosophy. In particular, David Stevens encourages applications for PhD topics in the following areas: Social justice and schooling; State education and the rights of minority cultures. Political liberalism and the creation of civic virtue; Reflective equilibrium/moral constructivism.

Radio immuno assay (RIA) is a technique for measuring concentrations of antigens. Although better techniques have subsequently been developed from it, understanding RIA forms the basis for understanding these derivatives. RIA belongs to the family of competition assays which are widely used in science, medicine and related industries to measure the concentrations of biologically active molecules.   This package introduces the concepts of RIA and will be useful to anyone wanting to understand how this family of techniques work.
