The nature of the subject section in the Subject Guide outlines the focus of the course which is to encourage students to understand more about “the world they live in, what makes it change, or what prevents it from changing.” There is greater emphasis on the interdisciplinary nature of Global Politics and an increased emphasis on students’ engagement with a wide range of contemporary political issues and challenges, focusing particularly on the understanding of power and its role in political systems. There is also a more explicit focus on how the course “integrates concepts, content, and contexts through inquiries centered on power and political issues.” The aims of the new Subject Guide spotlight how students will actively engage in global politics by exploring and evaluating power, examining the interaction between state and non-state actors, analysing political issues from multiple perspectives, and fostering a commitment to global citizenship. This is further reflected in the assessment objectives section of the Guide, which emphasizes broad goals like understanding power relationships and political concepts, applying, and analysing these in various contexts, synthesizing and evaluating global politics perspectives, and researching and communicating about political issues.
