Learning outcomes
|
This course focuses on making students reflect upon the situation when terms used in social sciences (culture, ethnics, identity) effect politics and activities of institutions. The course will introduce participants to the basic theories and development in multiculturalism. Some methods of instruction based on critical multiculturalism will be presented.
Students will be able to describe how different understanding of culture leads to different practices of multiculturalism. They will be able to apply this ability in analysis of concrete institutions and discourses.
