Degree Course: Political science and international relations
A.Y. 2018/2019
Autonomia di giudizio
Ai laureati del Corso di laurea in Scienze Politiche e Relazioni Internazionali viene chiesto sia di sviluppare progressivamente una propria autonomia di giudizio sin dai primi corsi di base, sia di affinare una capacità critica di analisi della politica europea, della politica internazionale, della società contemporanea e dell'evoluzione storico-politica del mondo odierno.
A tal fine, si è ritenuto particolarmente rilevante abituare gli studenti ad affrontare interpretazioni contrastanti di avvenimenti e problemi, in modo tale da consentire loro la formazione di un giudizio autonomo e lo sviluppo del necessario distacco critico dalle posizioni degli autori studiati.
Sia attraverso l'analisi critica dei testi studiati nei vari ambiti disciplinari, sia attraverso l'approccio comparativo, agli studenti viene perciò insegnato a formulare ipotesi interpretative proprie e a saper sviluppare riflessioni autonome.
Particolarmente rilevante, a questo proposito, è la prova finale, nella quale lo studente deve mostrare di essere giunto a un grado significativo di maturità intellettuale e di autonomia di giudizio.
La prova finale costituisce quindi il momento ultimo di sintesi e verifica delle capacità critiche acquisite.Abilità comunicative
Agli studenti del Corso di laurea in Scienze Politiche e Relazioni Internazionali viene chiesto di acquisire padronanza delle problematiche tipiche del corso di laurea stesso, e cioè della politica europea, con riferimento sia all'Unione Europea sia ai principali paesi membri, della politica internazionale contemporanea, con particolare attenzione alla complessità dei fenomeni internazionali e alla necessità di studiarli con un metodo fortemente interdisciplinare, e infine delle società contemporanee, così come dei principali problemi politici e delle principali tendenze del Ventesimo Secolo.
La conoscenza approfondita di queste tematiche offre agli studenti gli strumenti per acquisire una buona dimestichezza con un linguaggio tecnico, in alcuni casi decisamente specialistico, che permetterà loro di comunicare agevolmente con quanti lavorano in questi stessi settori, a livello sia dell'Unione Europea sia degli stati nazionali in tutte le loro articolazioni, sia ancora all'interno delle organizzazioni internazionali o delle organizzazioni non governative, nonché di comunicare in settori particolari quali possono essere le aree di crisi o i paesi meno sviluppati.
Al tempo stesso questa conoscenza di un linguaggio sufficientemente specialistico deve consentire agli studenti di svolgere, nel futuro loro ambito occupazionale, anche un lavoro di spiegazione e divulgazione di problematiche relativamente complesse.
Particolare cura viene perciò data all'acquisizione da parte degli studenti di tecniche comunicative attraverso il frequente ricorso allo strumento dei seminari e dei gruppi di discussione, oltre che a strumenti di indagine più specifici come i focus groups, i sondaggi, i campionamenti.
Il linguaggio acquisito nell'ambito del corso di studi triennale, infine, mira a costituire una buona base di partenza per ogni ulteriore approfondimento sia nell'ambito degli studi sia in quello professionale.Capacità di apprendimento
Agli studenti del Corso di laurea in Scienze Politiche e Relazioni Internazionali vengono impartiti insegnamenti volti a potenziare le loro capacità di apprendimento attraverso lo studio di testi di crescente complessità e specificità, in modo da prepararli sia all'inserimento nel mondo del lavoro sia eventualmente agli studi più avanzati tipici della laurea magistrale.
Al tempo stesso si cerca di rafforzare in loro doti quali flessibilità e agilità interpretativa, autonomia intellettuale, senso critico attraverso una didattica che, oltre agli strumenti tradizionali, faccia ampio ricorso a strumenti quali seminari, redazione di paper e tesine, gruppi di discussione.
Particolare attenzione viene rivolta all'apprendimento di tecniche di indagine e metodologie di ricerca tipiche, attraverso la scelta di strumenti didattici adeguati e facendo anche ricorso a forme di insegnamento particolarmente innovative.
Analoga attenzione viene infine rivolta anche alla capacità di lavorare su testi in lingua straniera, per abituare lo studente a muoversi con disinvoltura in un ambiente di studio e di lavoro internazionale.Requisiti di ammissione
L'accesso al Corso di laurea non richiede il possesso di particolari requisiti o il riferimento a specifiche competenze, al di là di una buona preparazione di base offerta dalle scuole secondarie superiori di diverso tipo.
Dato il carattere multidiscilplinare del Corso di laurea, è importante che lo studente possegga competenze sia linguistiche, sia logico-analitiche, la conoscenza di base di almeno una lingua stranera, l'interesse per la multiculturalità e la disponibilità al lavoro di gruppo.
Le modalità di verifica del possesso di questo competenze verranno ulteriormente definite dal regolamento didattico del Corso di Laurea in Scienze Politiche e Relazioni Internazionali, nel quale si specificano altresì gli obblighi formativi aggiuntivi previsti nel caso in cui la verifica non dia esito positivo.Prova finale
La prova finale consiste in una verifica delle conoscenze e competenze acquisite negli ambiti disciplinari del Corso di laurea.
Essa prevede la redazione di una breve tesi scritta e la sua successiva discussione orale in seduta pubblica, di fronte ad una apposita commissione composta da professori e ricercatori del Dipartimento di Scienze Politiche.
La commissione esprime la valutazione finale in cento decimi, con eventuale lode, tenendo conto sia dello svolgimento della prova finale sia dell'intera carriera universitaria dello studente.
Le caratteristiche e le modalità della prova, nonché la composizione della commissione, sono determinate dal regolamento didattico del Corso di laurea.Orientamento in ingresso
Le azioni di orientamento in ingresso sono improntate alla realizzazione di processi di raccordo con la scuola media secondaria.
Si concretizzano in attività di carattere informativo sui Corsi di Studio (CdS) dell'Ateneo ma anche come impegno condiviso da scuola e università per favorire lo sviluppo di una maggiore consapevolezza da parte degli studenti nel compiere scelte coerenti con le proprie conoscenze, competenze, attitudini e interessi.
Le attività promosse si articolano in:
a) autorientamento;
b) incontri e manifestazioni informative rivolte alle future matricole;
c) sviluppo di servizi online e pubblicazione di guide sull'offerta formativa dei CdS.
Tra le attività svolte in collaborazione con le scuole per lo sviluppo di una maggiore consapevolezza nella scelta, il progetto di autorientamento è un intervento che consente di promuovere un raccordo particolarmente qualificato con alcune scuole medie superiori.
Il progetto, infatti, è articolato in incontri svolti presso le scuole ed è finalizzato a sollecitare nelle future matricole una riflessione sui propri punti di forza e sui criteri di scelta.
La presentazione dell'offerta formativa agli studenti delle scuole superiori prevede tre eventi principali distribuiti nel corso dell'anno accademico ai quali partecipano tutti i CdS.
• Salone dello studente, si svolge presso la fiera di Roma fra ottobre e novembre e coinvolge tradizionalmente tutti gli Atenei del Lazio e molti Atenei fuori Regione, Enti pubblici e privati che si occupano di Formazione e Lavoro.
Roma Tre partecipa a questo evento con un proprio spazio espositivo, con conferenze di presentazione dell'offerta formativa dell'Ateneo e promuove i propri Dipartimenti scientifici grazie all'iniziativa Roma 1,2,3 … Scienze;
• Giornate di Vita Universitaria (GVU), si svolgono ogni anno da dicembre a marzo e sono rivolte agli studenti degli ultimi due anni della scuola secondaria superiore.
Si svolgono in tutti i Dipartimenti dell'Ateneo e costituiscono un'importante occasione per le future matricole per vivere la realtà universitaria.
Gli incontri sono strutturati in modo tale che accanto alla presentazione dei Corsi di Laurea, gli studenti possano anche fare un'esperienza diretta di vita universitaria con la partecipazione ad attività didattiche, laboratori, lezioni o seminari, alle quali partecipano anche studenti seniores che svolgono una significativa mediazione di tipo tutoriale.
Partecipano annualmente circa 5.000 studenti;
• Orientarsi a Roma Tre, rappresenta la manifestazione che chiude le annuali attività di orientamento in ingresso e si svolge in Ateneo a luglio di ogni anno.
L'evento accoglie, perlopiù, studenti romani che partecipano per mettere definitivamente a fuoco la loro scelta universitaria.
Durante la manifestazione viene presentata l'offerta formativa e sono presenti, con un proprio spazio, tutti i principali servizi di Roma Tre, le segreterie didattiche e la segreteria studenti.
I servizi online messi a disposizione dei futuri studenti universitari nel tempo sono aumentati tenendo conto dello sviluppo delle nuove opportunità di comunicazione tramite web.
Inoltre, durante tutte le manifestazioni di presentazione dell'offerta formativa, sono illustrati quei servizi online (siti web di Dipartimento, di Ateneo, Portale dello studente etc.) che possono aiutare gli studenti nella loro scelta.

POLITICAL ECONOMY
(objectives)
The course is structured in two main parts.
The first part is concerned with Microeconomics, where the students will learn how markets and governance structures organize core economic activities, such as production, distribution, and consumption, and the growth of productive resources. Upon completion of this part students will be able to identify and explain economic concepts and theories related to the behavior of economic agents, markets, industry and firm structures, and government policies. Moreover, students will be able to integrate theoretical knowledge with quantitative evidence in order to explain main economic events. Students will be able to evaluate the consequences of economic activities and institutions for individual and social welfare.
The second part is concerned with Macroeconomics, where the students will learn about the determinants of macroeconomic conditions (national output, employment, inflation), causes of business cycles, and interactions of monetary and financial markets with the real economy, familiarizing themselves in the process with major economic theories of relevance.
Upon completion of the second part students will be able to identify the determinants of various macroeconomic aggregates such as output, unemployment, inflation, productivity and the major challenges associated with the measurement of these aggregates. They will be able to discuss the linkages between financial markets and the real economy, and how these linkages influence the impact of economic policies over differing time horizons. Moreover, students will be able to describe the main macroeconomic theories of short term fluctuations and long term growth in the economy and they will be able to critically evaluate the consequences of basic macroeconomic policy options under differing economic conditions within a business cycle.

LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND INSTITUTIONS OF ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES
(objectives)
Students A-L The course is made up of three modules, which analyze English language, culture and literature, respectively. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on different social and cultural topics, such as transnationalism, migration, identity, and integration. They should achieve a critical awareness of the wide-ranging thematic influence of migration and transnationality on literature, with a specific focus on the fiction of Joseph Conrad. The emphasis on migration, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of such theme to modern social and cultural issues. Finally, by promoting active participation to classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.
Students M-Z Teaching objectives
The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on Afrofuturism, an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979). The emphasis on Afrofuturism, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of this phenomenon to modern social and cultural issues. By promoting active participation in classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.

THE SOCIOLOGY OF COMMUNICATION
(objectives)
The main aim of this course (“Geopolitics of code. Languages, power and identity in digital networks”) is to learn how digital languages and instruments influence our everyday life, and how they create new cultural representations and self-representations that transform and standardize our knowledge, but also our cultures and societies as a whole. Students will be introduced to the theoretical and practical aspects of the so-called "bias" of digital media, unmask their often invisible infrastructures, and learn to investigate how software and algorithms shape our consciousness. Through examples taken from different places and geopolitical contexts you will also see how it is possible to make a critical and alternative use of these tools. The first part will introduce you to the main thinkers and ideas of the sociology and history of media studies, from Harold Innis to Marshall McLhuan, from Vannevar Bush to Tim Berners-Lee. This will give you the necessary background to deal with the second part that will take place in a computer lab. Here you will explore practically how codes work, and you will learn how to build a ‘digital edition’ of a text using HTML and XML. At the end of the course you will have an idea not only about how digital media shape the present geopolitical scenario, but you will have developed some practical experience on how also all computing “codes” and applications imply and reflect social, political and cultural views and biases. For all these reasons students’ physical attendance, especially during practical sessions, is highly recommended.

POLITICAL ECONOMY
(objectives)
The course is structured in two main parts.
The first part is concerned with Microeconomics, where the students will learn how markets and governance structures organize core economic activities, such as production, distribution, and consumption, and the growth of productive resources. Upon completion of this part students will be able to identify and explain economic concepts and theories related to the behavior of economic agents, markets, industry and firm structures, and government policies. Moreover, students will be able to integrate theoretical knowledge with quantitative evidence in order to explain main economic events. Students will be able to evaluate the consequences of economic activities and institutions for individual and social welfare.
The second part is concerned with Macroeconomics, where the students will learn about the determinants of macroeconomic conditions (national output, employment, inflation), causes of business cycles, and interactions of monetary and financial markets with the real economy, familiarizing themselves in the process with major economic theories of relevance.
Upon completion of the second part students will be able to identify the determinants of various macroeconomic aggregates such as output, unemployment, inflation, productivity and the major challenges associated with the measurement of these aggregates. They will be able to discuss the linkages between financial markets and the real economy, and how these linkages influence the impact of economic policies over differing time horizons. Moreover, students will be able to describe the main macroeconomic theories of short term fluctuations and long term growth in the economy and they will be able to critically evaluate the consequences of basic macroeconomic policy options under differing economic conditions within a business cycle.

LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND INSTITUTIONS OF ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES
(objectives)
Students A-L The course is made up of three modules, which analyze English language, culture and literature, respectively. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on different social and cultural topics, such as transnationalism, migration, identity, and integration. They should achieve a critical awareness of the wide-ranging thematic influence of migration and transnationality on literature, with a specific focus on the fiction of Joseph Conrad. The emphasis on migration, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of such theme to modern social and cultural issues. Finally, by promoting active participation to classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.
Students M-Z Teaching objectives
The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on Afrofuturism, an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979). The emphasis on Afrofuturism, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of this phenomenon to modern social and cultural issues. By promoting active participation in classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.

THE SOCIOLOGY OF COMMUNICATION
(objectives)
The main aim of this course (“Geopolitics of code. Languages, power and identity in digital networks”) is to learn how digital languages and instruments influence our everyday life, and how they create new cultural representations and self-representations that transform and standardize our knowledge, but also our cultures and societies as a whole. Students will be introduced to the theoretical and practical aspects of the so-called "bias" of digital media, unmask their often invisible infrastructures, and learn to investigate how software and algorithms shape our consciousness. Through examples taken from different places and geopolitical contexts you will also see how it is possible to make a critical and alternative use of these tools. The first part will introduce you to the main thinkers and ideas of the sociology and history of media studies, from Harold Innis to Marshall McLhuan, from Vannevar Bush to Tim Berners-Lee. This will give you the necessary background to deal with the second part that will take place in a computer lab. Here you will explore practically how codes work, and you will learn how to build a ‘digital edition’ of a text using HTML and XML. At the end of the course you will have an idea not only about how digital media shape the present geopolitical scenario, but you will have developed some practical experience on how also all computing “codes” and applications imply and reflect social, political and cultural views and biases. For all these reasons students’ physical attendance, especially during practical sessions, is highly recommended.

POLITICAL ECONOMY
(objectives)
The course is structured in two main parts.
The first part is concerned with Microeconomics, where the students will learn how markets and governance structures organize core economic activities, such as production, distribution, and consumption, and the growth of productive resources. Upon completion of this part students will be able to identify and explain economic concepts and theories related to the behavior of economic agents, markets, industry and firm structures, and government policies. Moreover, students will be able to integrate theoretical knowledge with quantitative evidence in order to explain main economic events. Students will be able to evaluate the consequences of economic activities and institutions for individual and social welfare.
The second part is concerned with Macroeconomics, where the students will learn about the determinants of macroeconomic conditions (national output, employment, inflation), causes of business cycles, and interactions of monetary and financial markets with the real economy, familiarizing themselves in the process with major economic theories of relevance.
Upon completion of the second part students will be able to identify the determinants of various macroeconomic aggregates such as output, unemployment, inflation, productivity and the major challenges associated with the measurement of these aggregates. They will be able to discuss the linkages between financial markets and the real economy, and how these linkages influence the impact of economic policies over differing time horizons. Moreover, students will be able to describe the main macroeconomic theories of short term fluctuations and long term growth in the economy and they will be able to critically evaluate the consequences of basic macroeconomic policy options under differing economic conditions within a business cycle.

LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND INSTITUTIONS OF ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES
(objectives)
Students A-L The course is made up of three modules, which analyze English language, culture and literature, respectively. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on different social and cultural topics, such as transnationalism, migration, identity, and integration. They should achieve a critical awareness of the wide-ranging thematic influence of migration and transnationality on literature, with a specific focus on the fiction of Joseph Conrad. The emphasis on migration, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of such theme to modern social and cultural issues. Finally, by promoting active participation to classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.
Students M-Z Teaching objectives
The course is made up of two modules. While the first module deals with some of the main grammar and morpho-syntactic structures of the English language, the second module focuses on Afrofuturism, an interdisciplinary cultural movement that rejects a number of clichés that have commonly referred to people of African descent. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to take a critical outlook on the different languages of Afrofuturism: music, visual arts, cinema and especially literature − proto-Afrofuturist fiction such as W.E.B. Du Bois’s short story “The Comet” (1920), George S. Schuyler’s novel Black No More (1931) and more recent examples such as Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952) and Octavia E. Butler’s Kindred (1979). The emphasis on Afrofuturism, as developed through literary texts, will be instrumental to the connection of this phenomenon to modern social and cultural issues. By promoting active participation in classes, the adopted teaching method envisages the improvement of language skills and the ability to engage in open discussion.

THE SOCIOLOGY OF COMMUNICATION
(objectives)
The main aim of this course (“Geopolitics of code. Languages, power and identity in digital networks”) is to learn how digital languages and instruments influence our everyday life, and how they create new cultural representations and self-representations that transform and standardize our knowledge, but also our cultures and societies as a whole. Students will be introduced to the theoretical and practical aspects of the so-called "bias" of digital media, unmask their often invisible infrastructures, and learn to investigate how software and algorithms shape our consciousness. Through examples taken from different places and geopolitical contexts you will also see how it is possible to make a critical and alternative use of these tools. The first part will introduce you to the main thinkers and ideas of the sociology and history of media studies, from Harold Innis to Marshall McLhuan, from Vannevar Bush to Tim Berners-Lee. This will give you the necessary background to deal with the second part that will take place in a computer lab. Here you will explore practically how codes work, and you will learn how to build a ‘digital edition’ of a text using HTML and XML. At the end of the course you will have an idea not only about how digital media shape the present geopolitical scenario, but you will have developed some practical experience on how also all computing “codes” and applications imply and reflect social, political and cultural views and biases. For all these reasons students’ physical attendance, especially during practical sessions, is highly recommended.
