In the final evaluation it will be taken into account to what extent the
student:
- demonstrates knowledge of different historical and
contemporary perceptions of the idea of Europe;
- is able to evaluate different types of arguments in the
discussion of Europe;
- demonstrates knowledge of the preconditions of the
contemporary political and cultural landscape through an
insight into ideas of Europe;
- is able to identify and analyse historical ideas and relate
them to the contemporary context.
The objective is to introduce the student to the ambiguous and contested
meanings of the concept of Europe. Furthermore the purpose is to provide
the student with an understanding of how different ideas of Europe frame
the current understanding of Europe as they appear in the discussion of e.g.
Europe's borders, the meanings of the European Union, and European
identity.
