This course offers an engaging exploration of the application of textual analysis in Political Science, with a focus on International Relations and Security Studies. Students will learn how to use the essential techniques of Qualitative Content Analysis (QCA) and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to unravel and interpret the complex layers of language and narrative in political texts. The course's goal is to provide students with a practical understanding of how policy documents, official communication, and media narratives shape and reflect global political and security issues. This course combines theoretical knowledge with real-world applications in international relations and security studies, making it ideal for students looking for a more in-depth, nuanced perspective on political analysis.
