This course aims to give research students an advanced introduction to globalisation and discuss the various aspects most commonly associated with globalisation. The course aims to present a broad understanding of globalisation covering the way that the phenomenon is discussed in a number of different disciplines across the social sciences and humanities. In particular, the course will stress theoretical and methodological aspects of the globalisation phenomenon.

Jeppe Strandsbjerg (CBS) and Lars Bo Kaspersen (KU, Political Science) will be the core faculty. In addition, a range of visiting scholars will lecture. Last year we had contributions from John Hall (McGill), Ben Rosamond (PolSci Copenhagen Uni), Hans Lucht (Anthropology, Copenhagen Uni), Grahame F. Thompson (CBS/Open University), Anker Brink Lund (CBS), Anders Blok (Sociology, Copenhagen Uni), and Morten Ougaard (CBS).
