Course
Course 15 credits • ÖCKR03
The course primarily provides an advanced understanding of three fields: scientific theories relevant for studies in this area, qualitative methodology and research design and source evaluation.
Lectures and seminars present selected examples of key theories within history, cultural and social sciences, and concrete examples of these theories. The course reveals theoretical grants, qualitative research methodologies and research-ethical considerations that facilitate analyses of varying problems in present-day Europe to prepare students for their final assignment of the programme. The course also covers relevant perspectives on transformation processes after the fall of communism in the Eastern and Central Europe.
