Description:
The main goal of the course is to enable students for independent and critical explaining of the social phenomena by using analytical tools offered by theories covered during the course. In that the special emphasis is given to the process of synthesizing of the knowledge, that is critical judgement and connecting of different theoretical approaches. Students will be encouraged to recognize social problems thorough the prism of explained theories and use them as research topics, and also to try to apply concepts and theories that are covered within the course in the context of Croatian society.
