Politics, Violence and Crime MSc

Students gain in-depth knowledge and critical understanding of major theoretical, ethnographic and methodological debates in the anthropology of politics, violence and crime. They also develop their independent research skills through practical instruction in methods and a final dissertation project.

This is the first programme to centre, and directly build, specialist anthropological training upon the interrelated thematics of politics, violence and crime. Its critical pursuit of reflexive ethnographic approaches distinguishes this degree from others in Security, Peace and Development Studies.
