| Inhalt | What is it like to live in a new democracy, capitalist society, and national after 75 years of socialism? How do you build democratic state, nation, and market economy after the Soviet totalitarian experiment? Why do you make revolutions in a contemporary society and how they condition the country’s development? This course will help to find the answers to the questions above using Ukrainian experience. The course aims to understand development of Ukraine’s political system and its crises in 2004 and 2014. Through reading and class discussions, students will gain an understanding of the current political issues in Ukraine and Eastern Europe. This course will consist of 13 lessons, 6 lectures and 7 discussions. Lectures will provide students with the main theories and data on Ukraine’s recent history. Discussions will focus on one issue to be deeply discussed among the students. Students are expected to attend each discussion (two missed classes are allowed); peer discussion is one of the most efficient ways of learning and there is no way of substituting it. |
| Lernziele | This course will consist of six lectures and six discussions. Each discussion will focus on one topic that was previously reviewed at the lectures. Students are required to read all materials before each discussion. The students can get 3 or 6 ECTS at this seminar. To earn 3 ECTS, a student should prepare and deliver one presentation, and attend at least 11 lessons out of 13. 6 ECTS is to be given for those students who’d make one presentation and one paper (up to 10 pages) on one of the topics of the course. This option should be approved by professor with a learning contract. |
