Politics BA (Hons)

Politics at Chester is both theoretical and applied. It is about decision-making, conflict resolution, and power, and explores the role of the state, government, and institutions. Politics at Chester asks how we structure society and how society structures us, and presents opportunities to engage with and critique the key political ideas, processes, and institutions both domestically and in the world today. Politics at Chester looks behind the media headlines and assumptions that surround power politics. We explore the underlying political issues and ask age-old questions such as €˜How do we achieve the good society?; €˜Do the strong do as they please, while the weak suffer?; and €˜Is the point of politics to change the world?. The teaching team brings a wealth of experience and knowledge. We may also invite guest lecturers to provide specialist sessions and where appropriate, facilitate visits to political institutions and events with regional MPs and local authorities.
