About the course
Aim
After completion of the course, the student should on an advanced level be able to:
- account for processes of social, cultural, political, economic, and technical change and their interaction in relation societal transformations towards sustainable development
- critically analyze driving forces of sustainability transformations, institutions, actors and ideas
- evaluate democratic and socio-economic conditions for justice and inclusive sustainability transformations
- apply different transformation theories and concepts in practice
- communicate relevant knowledge within in societal change for sustainable development orally and in text.
Content
The course deals with the transformative ambition that is built into the UN's Agenda 2030and the global sustainable development goals. The course also brings up practical, political, and personal dimensions of sustainability transformations. The course addresses questions such as: to what and for whom societal transformations take place; who has/is given responsibilities in transformation processes; how emerging and controlled transformations interact; which driving forces and interventions are important for societal transformations; what ideas, values, and narratives are mobilized to justify transformative processes; which economic and political interests are at stake; and where the opportunities and the barriers are found.
