1 Area Studies: Theory and Method, 7.5ECTS Advanced Level, autumn semester 2017 Main teachers: Isa Blumi Asli Postaci Course description This course gives an introduction to area studies as scientific practice and gives the student an insight into what the study of regions as distinct from each other entails. This will prove to have theoretical and methodological consequences that require deeper discussions around what it is we hope to discover by studying Areas, that are distinct as well as comparatively. A special focus will be placed on how the social sciences and history can be enriched through these Areaspecific perspectives and how knowledge of language, history, and culture constitutes the basis of Area Within the course various methods will be debated and compared through examples of Area studies that take the student from Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, Southeast Asia, Turkey and the Middle East and North Africa. The course is structured around three themes: Area Studies as context, the regions under study in context and comparative Area Studies. Through these themes, we will go from a discussion on descriptive case to comparative cross-regional case Learning outcomes After completing the course, the student is expected to: Demonstrate deeper knowledge of Area Studies as various forms of academic practice. Demonstrate an ability to, independently and critically, relate to methodological differences in the study of regions and comparative regional Demonstrate knowledge of how the most common social scientific methods are applied to area studies, as well as the challenges this can entail. Demonstrate knowledge about the current discussion around the value of knowledge of language, history and culture as the basis of regional Demonstrate an ability to, independently and critically, analyse relevant examples of regional studies and theoretical and methodological standpoints in relation to these, with a special focus on empirical studies that deal with socio-economic developments in Latin America, Africa, the Caribbean, Southeast Asia, Turkey and the Middle East and North Africa.
2 Instruction Readings should be done before each class. Each class will consist of a lecture (45 minutes), a break (15 minutes) and general discussion (2 hours with another 15-minute break). The discussion(s) will ideally start with students initiating. The focus will be on the assigned readings and students are expected to offer both a critique of assigned material and compare and contrast each one s merits. The exact way that this will be organized, depends on the participants and their number but it should aim to engage the scholarship covered throughout the seminar and lead the rest of the participants to engage in debate around the quality of analysis around the type of sources discussed in the assigned readings. Students who actively participate can expect stronger final grades. Lessons plan Lesson 1 Introduction to the course and to Area studies: Grand theories vs. Regional specific knowledge & Asli Postaci Reading: Explore various journals available electronically via the university library that have area studies focus.

Seminar instructions: Students are expected for the seminar to prepare presentations discussing the themes listed above regarding the usefulness of Area Studies to the Swedish University / Academia. Students may make a presentation in class or submit a one page written statement to help initiate the debate. Deadline for final submission of written assignments is on Jan. 8. Examination The course is examined by submission of two written assignments and one prepared presentation or submitted written alternative on Area Studies and its relevance to Swedish context. The grading on the course will be based on the aggregated result of the three assignments. The assignments will be weighted as follows:
5 Assignment 1 (submission January 8) = 45% of the grade Assignment 2 (submission January 8) = 45% of the grade Seminar Submission, due on date of seminar (December 21). Students who actively participate can expect stronger final grades. Full details of the assignments will be presented in the first and second sessions. Please note, all assignments must be submitted through Mondo, no exceptions. For those who submit their assignments late, they will be penalized. For Assignment 1, students will be asked to write a comparative paper including two cases that are covered during the course. The topic for each student will be elaborated in lesson 5. Formalia: At least 5 pages, double-spaced. For Assignment 2, students will be asked to read, compare and contrast one of the following books, integrating lessons learned from the course readings to account for why our critical reading of Area Studies is helpful in the manner which these scholars present their cases. To do this more effectively, students MUST integrate Lockman (2016) into their discussion with references (citing specific pages) that help account for how Area Studies in the United States distorts or illuminates the topics under study in the books below. Further details are provided by the second session. Formalia: At least 5 pages, double-spaced. Please choose ONE book to Review Hall, Bruce S.
