UCEAP Quarter Units

Course Description
Mainstream economics understands the economy as the outcome of rational forces coming together even when there is some acknowledgement that there is something beyond that simplification. Sociology – amongst other social sciences (including some branches of critical economics) – claims that economic decisions that are normally characterized by high levels of uncertainty, even when they have a clear rational objective (i.e. like the maximization of utility), rely on social devices such as norms, traditions, power constrains, family, and friendship ties. The core objective of this course is to provide a good introduction to the contributions of sociology to understanding the complexity of economic phenomena and of markets. To do so, the course starts by reviewing some key elements on the way economic life and markets are addressed in classical and contemporary sociology. The course then moves to study the specific sociological studies of markets where students critically engage with several key discussions: the embeddedness of markets in other social structures, the role of cognitive mechanisms and devices, economists making markets, among others. With the elements covered through the course, the students have the opportunity to explore specific markets from a sociological perspective and broaden their understanding of these complex phenomena.

Course Description
This course provides students with substantial knowledge of European Human Rights Law by looking at the functioning and the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). Based in Strasbourg, France, the ECtHR is among the most powerful human rights bodies in the world. This course gives students the chance to learn about the procedure before the Court, its organization as well as about the main issues adjudicated by the Court under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The course starts by giving an overview of the Council of Europe, the “mother organization” of the ECtHR, of the ECHR and of the ECtHR. Then the course teaches students how to bring an application to the ECtHR, how the ECtHR renders its judgements, and how the Court interprets the ECHR. The last part of the course approaches the issue of jurisdiction of the ECtHR, the problem of derogations from the ECHR and explains how the Court interpreted the ECHR with a focus on the prohibition of torture, the right to respect for private and family life, and the prohibition of discrimination.

Course Description
This discussion-based seminar course examines modern warfare and its effects through a deliberately interdisciplinary lens. From new military history to cultural anthropology, sociology, psychology, medical psychiatry, historical geography, literature, and the study of religion, memory, and art, and employing examples from both European and non-European contexts, the course moves beyond a purely historical approach in order to compare and assess examples of different disciplinary methods and perspectives on the far-ranging and complex phenomenon of war. Students gain a broader understanding of the varied experience of war for different groups and the effects of militarization in the modern period (roughly 1789-present), as well as new methodological tools with which to conduct research and analyze secondary literature. Topics include: nuclear war, ecology, colonialism, prisoners of war, truth and testimony, identity, discourse, violence, memorials, trauma, the body, masculinity, women's work and activism, modernism, spirituality, children,cinema, cyber-warfare.

Course Description

This seminar studies the successes of LGBTQI rights activism globally with an in-depth focus on issue areas that afford a broad overview of international LGBTQI policy. The first section of the course focuses on the new theoretical frameworks in political science, sociology, and international relations that deal with sexuality and LGBTQI issues. In the second part of the course, an examination of global aspects of sexuality and LGBTQI issues allows students to look at how LGBTQI rights arrive in the diplomatic arena, and how they affect international organizations' policies. In the third section, case studies from various parts of the world are discussed through the lenses of the international developments in LGBTQI issues. The main objective is to make students understand and criticize the increasingly important role LGBTQI issues play in international relations and development policies.

Course Description
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in promoting ideas of multiculturalism and in codifying minority rights, both at the global level, and within regional bodies. This course considers important issues relating to this development, paying attention to the European context. The course addresses three questions: (a) why minority rights have emerged as a priority issue, and how this relates to broader changes to the functions of the international community in the post-Cold War era; (b) the categories that are being used to identify different types of minorities, such as “indigenous peoples”, “national minorities”, and “migrant workers”, and how these are viewed as raising different types of challenges; and (c) the complex consequences of this process. This course provides students with an overview of the legal and political issues pertaining to minority rights at the European scale. The concepts of minority and of discrimination are scrutinized and consideration is given as to which groups constitute a minority in legal terms and how political claims are made to counter discrimination in different political regimes.
