About the course

Aim

Efter avslutad kurs ska den studerande kunna:

redogöra för kulturella och sociala aspekter av migration och politiska och geografiska gränsdragningar, såväl globalt som lokalt, och i samtida och historiska sammanhang
reflektera över globala sociala, politiska och religiösa rörelser mot bakgrund av nutida teoretiska perspektiv
analysera hur globala kulturella flöden och utbyten har påverkat lokala kulturella uttryck och praktiker
redogöra för urbana miljöers roll i globala flöden av människor, idéer och kulturella uttryck
kritiskt diskutera centrala begrepp och teorier inom forskningsfältet global mobilitet och migration samt kunna tillämpa dessa på empiriska och teoretiska fall
formulera relevanta och undersökningsbara forskningsfrågor inom området globala studier av kultur och samhälle

Content

I kursen studeras globala flöden av människor, idéer, uttryck och resurser i relation till politiska och geografiska gränsdragningar, lokalt, nationellt och internationellt. I kursen kombineras antropologiska och samhällsvetenskapliga perspektiv för att analysera hur migration påverkar människors sätt att leva, tänka, och handla. Under kursen betonas sociala och kulturella dimensioner av migration, med fokus på hur sociala och kulturella rörelser relaterar till en global rörlighet av idéer och uttryck och hur dessa omsätts i lokala sammanhang. Särskild vikt läggs vid hur urbaniseringen påverkat människors livsvillkor och hur staden blivit en arena för interkulturella relationer samt social inkludering och exkludering. I kursen studeras migration och kulturutbyten genom ett kritiskt jämförande perspektiv som relaterar fallstudier från olika delar av världen till varandra. I kursen behandlas också grunderna i vetenskapligt uppsatsskrivande.
