The overall aim of the course is to summarize and critically discuss the complex relation between business, culture and politics in contemporary society.
To foster the students’ critical abilities, the course will focus on essay writing. With the purpose of developing students’ writing and thinking abilities, students are assessed and receive feedback from both teachers and peers continuously throughout the course.
