Description de la formation

The Master Programme in International History and Politics researches and teaches the contemporary world through its different histories and politics. Within layered, critical and global outlooks, International History and Politics are studied before, between and beyond nations, thereby encouraging multifaceted approaches to current policy, socioeconomics, politics and culture.

The main teaching and research themes of the Master Programme in International History and Politics are:

• The history and politics of international governance and systems
• The history and politics of national and transnational actors; and
• The history and politics of culture, societies and markets in regional and/or global perspective.

These themes are complementary. The Department’s mission is to encourage dynamic and cross-cutting historical approaches to understanding, contextualising and situating international politics and policies. Specifically, the Department cultivates methodological richness in international, transnational, global, social, economic and cultural history and politics.
