Offizielle Kursbeschreibung: This seminar, part of the module „Planning and Researching“, aims to gain familiarity with the critical use of theory. Out of the many possible theoretical approaches available in African Studies, we will first engage with a few if the classic theories. Following that, we will identify and explore critical voices, who argue that in view of the current global challenges, new solutions are required in the form of the recognition of alternative epistemological traditions beyond western hegemonic knowledge.
Organisatorisches: Prüfung: 4 brief response papers to literature and written research proposal (3000 words)
