History and Politics is a classic combination of subjects for students looking to investigate the workings of government and society from contemporary and historical perspectives. You will examine why society has changed and seek to understand the issues facing societies across the globe today. Through both subjects, the course will teach you the essential skills of writing, critical thinking, evaluating evidence, and assessing data. This program offers excellent interdisciplinary preparation by combining historical research with political science and political theory. What will I study? You will study Irish, European, and world history, engaging with political, cultural, social, and economic aspects of history, and investigating historical change, from the impact of ideas to the role of class, gender, and race. You will also study methods and theories in political science, including international relations and development, while covering a range of areas such as political conflict, sustainability, human rights, political systems and political economy.
