Concetti politici. Un'analisi interattiva

Capire i concetti politici, imparare a definirli con precisione senza perdere la loro ricchezza, è il primo passo per diventare protagonisti del mondo politico.

Attraverso l’utilizzo di una metodologia innovativa questo corso ti aiuterà ad orientarti nella complessità delle parole chiave della Scienza Politica.

Il corso si rivolge a studenti universitari ma anche a tutti coloro che desiderano acquisire strumenti di approfondimento e confronto più rigorosi.

Verranno analizzati gli attori cruciali della democrazia, dai partiti alle burocrazie, i sistemi di regolazione della vita politica e sociale, con uno sguardo alla Costituzione e alle politiche di welfare. E si discuteranno le tendenze più rilevanti della politica contemporanea, come il ruolo della personalizzazione nel comportamento elettorale. Le lezioni faranno riferimento al metodo presentato in Hyperpolitics (M. Calise e T. Lowi, University of Chicago Press 2010), un open book, liberamente accessibile in rete e in continua espansione con i contributi di nuovi utenti. Ne risulta un laboratorio che unisce chiarezza argomentativa e selezione delle fonti online per sviluppare l'analisi critica.
