Global Theory

Module code: POL283A

Semester: SEM1

Contact: Dr Aurora Ganz

This module takes five key thinkers whose work emerges from experiences/histories of colonialism and racism to ask how international order(ing) has been understood by those standing outside of or in conversation with the Western canon, thinking globally. Thinking globally means thinking seemingly disparate socio-political phenomena and forces together and in connection (I.e., capitalism, racism, patriarchy, colonialism, etc.). This is a defining feature of the intellectuals and thinkers that will be explored on the module, who include Edward Said, Houria Boutjelda, Suzanne Cesaire and Cedric Robinson.
