Understanding Contemporary Societies provides students with the opportunity to explore the connections between language, culture, and society with a comparative approach. Using a range of contemporary materials in different media (including political writing, journalism and visual media), students investigate the factors of geography and national identity, history and memory, politics and society, culture and media in the countries where the languages they are studying or encounter across Europe are spoken.
