This programme offers intensive training in the anthropology of politics, violence and crime. It provides a solid foundation in ethnographic theory, analysis and method. It does so to uniquely enable you to utilise anthropology as a tool to conduct research on questions tied to the state, law, democracy, conflict, revolution, terror, criminality and carceral systems, across different times and places.
Students develop knowledge and understanding of major theoretical, ethnographic and methodological debates in the anthropology of politics, violence and crime, and enhance their independent research skills through practical training in methods. This is the first programme to embed these themes directly within anthropology. Pursing a bottom up, ethnographic approach distinguishes the degree from programmes in Security, Peace and Development Studies.
Students undertake modules to the value of 180 credits.
The programme consists of two compulsory modules (45 credits), three optional modules (45 credits) and a research dissertation (90 credits).
Upon successful completion of 180 credits, you will be awarded a MSc in Politics, Violence and Crime.
