The course introduces key concepts and theoretical approaches exploring (Western/Northern) communication in and of race, colonial relations and development from late colonialism to today. On the basis of selected academic texts, the course provides an initial overview over the field and challenges and critically discusses the role of communication and discourse in global power rela-tions.
During the course, students are provided with a toolkit to critically assess communication concern-ing globalisation, development and race, and the way it is approached, employed or utilised
by media organisations, states, NGOs and transnational institutions. Students are also given the
opportunity to apply that toolkit in the form of an analytical framework for an (actual or hypothet-ical)
research project of their own choosing (within the topical horizon of the seminar).
The language of instruction, literature and course discussions is English. Active participation in
discussions and regular attendance in the seminar is expected from students enrolling in the course;
the reading of the compulsory literature before class is mandatory and necessary for productive
discussions.
Students are to develop a research problem and an essayistic or empirical approach to study that problem. The problem should be based on or at least connected with the course literature and discussions held during the seminar. For students to pass the course (3 ECTS), their individual approach should be presented in the form a 500 word abstract and a short presentation. Stu-dents taking the seminar as a specialisation course (6 ECTS) are to write an additional paper (es-say or research exposé, depending on their chosen approach) based on their abstract.
