2 Course/Module description: BA seminar, one weekly class. Introductory lectures, students presentations according to subjects and class discussions. A seminar paper has to be written and delivered until the end of classes. Course/Module aims: The objective of the seminar is to thoroughly analyze political and social issues in the Latin American countries. In order to bring the participants to a level of knowledge and understanding that will make possible to review the subject in a critical way the participants will have to confront a series of political and social phenomena characteristic of the area under study. The seminars agenda is divided onto 10 main subjects about which academic material will be read, discussions will be undertaken and position papers will be written. The seminar will analyze also materials that appear in films, documentaries, Internet, recordings and printed material beyond the courses bibliography. In every class we will try to link the academic-theoretical dimension to the empirical evolving reality during the courses length in the examined area and we will also try to reach theoretical conclusions from the empirical materials. Learning outcomes - On successful completion of this module, students should be able to: A wide conceptual infrastructure will be created during the year. This will allow the students to perform the tasks elaborated in the previous section. We will also work to enlarge the knowledge and analytic basis on the subjects being studied on Latin America, from a theoretical and an empirical point of view. Writing a good level seminar paper is another result of this course. Attendance requirements(%): 100%.Mandatory attendance to all classes. Non-attendance up to 25% of the classes with a justified reason (reserve army service, illness) and the presentation of an adequate document certifying the cause of non-attendance. Teaching arrangement and method of instruction: Frontal classes. Presentations by the students. Films. Guest lectures. Active participation of the whole class in the discussions, on the basis of bibliography readings. Short comments on contemporary political and social news (electronic + printed) from Latin America, at the beginning of each class.
