Lecture Reading Lists and Class Preparation (1 items)
There is no single core textbook for this module. For each session, I have listed some corereadings on which the seminar activities will be based and a list of very useful furtherreadings. I have also provided an accompanying list of key discussion questions. Studentsare strongly advised to read the core readings at a minimum, and one or more of thefurther readings, in preparation for the session. While reading, they should consider theaccompanying discussion questions. It is important to note that the reading lists are only astarting point for the topic; students should go beyond these lists when researching theessay.
