• PO-245 The History of Political Thought

  This module examines the history of political thought in the West, as it has developed through key political thinkers. In so doing, it traces the development of core political concepts and values, such as democracy, freedom and rights. The course thus has two main aims. First, to provide students with an understanding of pivotal political thinkers and their works. Second, to equip students with an appreciation of how the history of political thought has shaped the current political landscape. The module is designed to enrich the topics covered in the first-year module Political Philosophy by placing them within a historical context.
