The programme team are very excited to host the first of two induction sessions with our new MSc Social Justice and Community Action students this afternoon! The new #academicyear commences!

In Theories and Politics of Social Justice this week we explore what #socialjustice means and exploring its conceptual history. Some authors we will be referring to include: Nancy Fraser, David Miller, Kurt Vonnegut Jnr and E.O Wright. Looking forward to the discussions!

In Organisational Management for Social Justice this week students will begin to explore the relationship between social movement theory and organisation studies, as well as students discussing their own experiences of organisational management using a #socialjustice lens.

In Activist Social Research this week students explore Enlightenment and post-Enlightenment approaches to knowledge and research, and wrestle with how partisanship and objectivity can be reconciled in #activist social research; engaging with #feminist standpoint theorists.
