3 Degree Modules M.A. Democratic Governance and Civil Society SOZ-MDZ-DC Democracy and Civil Society Students will expand their existing basic theoretical knowledge, deepen their understanding of the history of political thought and establish links to current theoretical debates identify, reflect and compare the normative and analytical aspects of modern political theory recognize and apply the main hypotheses of theoretical statements to empirical research. 1) Political Theory and Civil Society The seminar s core focus is on learning, discussing and debating those most important political theories in which the word, the concept, and the practice of "civil society" form the core of controversies regarding social, economic and political conflicts. Due to the variety of semantics, historical experience, and theoretical importance of the diverse concepts of civil society, the participants of the seminar will go beyond actual theoretical debates and trace the genesis, development, and transformation of the concept Civil Society as it informs our current understanding of state, society, democracy and economy. 2) Democracies in Transition and Democracy Promotion Models of democracy and participation, democratic transformations and democracy promotion make up the core of this course: - Models of Democracy and their socio-cultural foundations. - The Westminster Model of Majoritarian Democracy. - Negotiation Democracy, Federalism and Counter Majoritarian Governance. - The subsidiarity principle and decentralized governance - Associative Democracy - Direct Democracy - Concepts and realities of Democracy Promotion - Constitutional Engineering and Nation Building - Good Governance and democratization. Obligatory 1) Political Theory and Civil Society 2) Democracies in Transition and Democracy Promotion 300 hours total: Seminar attendance, 2x30 hours; Preparation and research assignments, 2x60 hours; Non-graded work, 30 hours; Graded work: 90 hours. 4 ECTS: Participation in the course including either a minor oral presentation or written Stand:23.April2013,DekanatBüroS&LFB01UniOS3

4 SOZ-MDZ-LP Civil Society and Politics Students will learn to distinguish the analytical and normative references in the concept of civil society and evaluate these comparatively. identify and evaluate the national, international and transnational framework within which interactions between civil society actors take place. describe, classify and compare the organizations, procedures and logics of civil society actors at both the national and transnational levels. recognize and apply hypotheses and combine theory with empirical research. 1) Comparing Civil Societies In the same way that there are, arguably, varieties of capitalism, there are varieties of civil societies. The seminar deals with the theoretical and methodological foundations of empirical studies on civil societies at first. In a second step political systems and their characteristic configurations of will be explored as they interact with the structures and actor constellations in civil society. Besides, the seminar deals with the special topics in particular. - Historical, sociological and political concepts of Civil Society. - Status of comparative Civil Society research. - History and development of Civil Society activities. - Civil Society in transformation processes. - Civil Society in Germany (history and contemporary developments) - Civil Societies in established democracies and authoritarian regimes. - Civil Society on the sub-national level. - Civil Society civil society at the supranational (European) level. 2) Political Interest Intermediation The seminar deals with the basic methodological aspects of analyzing empirically the genesis, structure, and functions of intermediary actors in society. Associations, political parties, churches and social movements are examined with a focus on pluralistic, clientalist, and corporatist forms of interest intermediation. Developed democracies are confronted with the effects of a crisis of participation (political lethargy, erosion of social milieus) and the challenge of promoting citizen s involvement in democracy ( democratizing democracy ). States in the Global South are primary concerned in developing a functioning civil society as an element of consolidating new democracies within the context of political, economic, social and cultural transformation processes. Obligatory 1) Comparing Civil Societies 2) Political Interest Intermediation 300 hours total: Seminar attendance, 2x30 hours; Preparation and research assignments, 2x60 hours; Non-graded work, 30 hours; Graded work: 90 hours. Stand:23.April2013,DekanatBüroS&LFB01UniOS4

5 SOZ-MDZ-GP Governance und Public Policy Students will learn to analyze complex political regulatory arrangements from a vertical (national, European, and international multi-level system) and a horizontal (state-society interface) perspective. In particular, students will learn normative and analytical standards, have the capability to discover those regulation arenas in an empirical and conceptual way and evaluate their legitimation and efficiency. 1) Good Governance und Public Policy First, the theoretical, institutional foundations and historical conditions of the emergence of the good governance concept are developed. By adopting a normative perspective, the second step scrutinizes the binding force of the underlying norms. From an empiricalanalytical perspective problems in the application and feasibility of the concept arise: How can governance be measured and how can this concept contribute to successful solutions to the problems of modern governance? 2) Comparative Public Policy First, the fundamentals of Policy Analysis and Modes of Governance will be imparted. In a next step, recent developments in policy analysis, particularly in governance research on multi-level governance, are addressed and the question of "New Modes of Governance" will be raised. Based on specific empirical examples students will investigate whether and to what extent political systems in different regional contexts (Europe, Africa, North America, South America, etc.) and at different levels (local, regional, national, EU, international) vary in regards to the concepts and instruments of political regulation. Furthermore the conclusions from these investigations will be discussed. Obligatory for PPGG Students 1) Good Governance und Public Policy 2) Comparative Public Policy 300 hours total: Seminar attendance, 2x30 hours; Preparation and research assignments, 2x60 hours; Non-graded work, 30 hours; Graded work: 90 hours.

6 SOZ-MDZ-GB Governance and Peace Building Students will learn the important theories, concepts and problems, an overview of the development of peace and conflict studies and learn to answer emerging questions related to democratic governance. This will help students develop the analytical skills and normative standards for evaluating political processes. Furthermore this module provides the acquisition of application-oriented knowledge in the field of peacebuilding. 1) Peace and Conflict Studies The aim of this course is to provide a general overview about concepts, methods and theories in the area of peace and conflict studies. The seminar will in particular cover a range of forms of conflict managements in order to address various societal or international conflicts. This may include inter alia political dialogue, mediation, negotiation, arbitration, transitional justice, interim administration, peacekeeping or peace enforcement as well as more general issues of state- and peacebuilding. The seminar will also focus on particular cases in order to learn more about the strengths and weaknesses of the various conflict management approaches. Finally, the role of different actors in peace and conflict studies will be explored; the emphasis will be in particular on non-state actors, including NGOs and civil society organizations, and international organizations. 2) Democracy and Peacebuilding The aim of this course is to linking the question of democratic governance and of democratisation with the issue of peacebuilding. What are the conditions, requirements, instruments and institutions necessary for peacebuilding processes? And how are they related to the prospects of democracy? How does the peacebuilding process affect democratic governance? These issues will be addressed by applying theories of democracy to the field of peace and conflict studies as well as by learning from comparing of different cases. The seminar will also put an emphasis on the role of international actors on these processes, in particular by examining the politics of democracy promotion, the provision of development aid and the broader state- /peacebuildig agenda. Obligatory Elective 1) Peace and Conflict Studies 2) Democracy and Peacebuilding 300 hours total: Seminar attendance, 2x30 hours; Preparation and research assignments, 2x60 hours; Non-graded work, 30 hours; Graded work: 90 hours.

7 SOZ-MDZ-AP Applied Public Policy Analysis Students will learn empirical variants of state regulation and societal self-regulation in industrial and transitional societies and compare them in light of core theoretical concepts of political regulation. Students will understand the normative and analytical issues of these concepts are be able to identify different regulation forms and evaluate their legitimacy and efficiency. The courses raise relevant issues of public policy analysis in different policy fields and at different policy levels. Obligatory Electives 1) Applied Public Policy Analysis 1 2) Applied Public Policy Analysis hours total: Seminar attendance, 2x30 hours; Preparation and research assignments, 2x60 hours; Non-graded work, 30 hours; Graded work: 90 hours. SOZ-MDZ-VG Varieties of Governance Students will acquire the theoretical and methodological foundations of policy analysis and policy research, in particular, the historical development and international and intercultural variations of governance institutions and governance practices. 1) Governance in the EU Using the concept of governance, this course analyzes the EU as a non-state political system which is constantly changing. Change from a process-oriented point of view (e.g. shifts of responsibility; variety of control modes) as well as from a structural perspective (e.g. EU expansion, multi-level relationships). Therewith this course lays out the theoretical foundation for notions like governance, political regulation, modes of governance and the European multi-level system. It analyses in detail governance structures and governance mechanisms in the EU as well as their logics of interaction (hierarchy, competition, negotiation, cooperation, etc.). Furthermore analyzes the implications for the EU (multi-level) system (a) as a power structure and (b) in regards to its problem-solving capability. 2) The Modern State in History and Theory Stand:23.April2013,DekanatBüroS&LFB01UniOS7

8 First, this seminar will lay the theoretical and conceptual foundations for the notions of state formation, legitimacy, territoriality, monopoly of power, nation, public administration and government activity. In a next step, the acquired knowledge will be used to analyze current developments in transformation of statehood and governance practices. Issues like constitutional and administrative modernization, the emergence of a "post-national" state and understandings of democracy, problems of post-colonial developing countries and the institutional interfaces between state and organizational societies will be discussed in the seminar. The prime objective is a deeper understanding of problems in legitimacy, organization and intervention of constitutionally organized community action.
