What will I learn?

This course provides a compact journey through major political thinkers from Plato and Aristotle to Marx, Arendt, Foucault, and Rawls. Learners trace the development of core ideas like justice, sovereignty, liberty, and rights. They apply these concepts to modern issues such as climate policy, migration, inequality, and digital surveillance while developing essential analytical, research, and writing skills for creating well-supported political reports.
