FYSP 062 - Brexit and the Rise of Nationalism in Europe

FC ARHU WINT
4 credits
This seminar aims to provide broad knowledge of European studies as well as in-depth study in British politics in light of Brexit. We will explore contemporary issues related to nationalism in Europe through politics, sociology, music, newspapers, literature, and other works. What is the European Union and the main challenges that it faces today? How can Britpop, a mid-1990s UK-based music and culture movement, explain Brexit? What are the origins of nationalism in Europe and what is the response from European leaders? Students should expect to write frequent short papers as well as give in-class presentations.
