Politics, Economics and Law
Politics has been taught at Buckingham since the University's foundation in 1976. The present degree programme in Politics, Economics and Law continues to fulfil the original intention of providing an education in politics which recognises the connection with cognate disciplines. The narrow specialisation that characterises the conventional single honours degree is thus avoided.
Where does power lie in the American political system? Has New
Labour in Britain completely broken away from its origins in the
trade union and socialist movements? Is the European Union becoming
a federal state? How far are political factors responsible for
economic underdevelopment? Is a new world political order emerging?
These are the sorts of questions which will be addressed during the
course of your studies and which a politics degree from the
University of Buckingham will equip you to answer.
The politics staff at the University of Buckingham are academic
political theorists with wide-ranging interests and areas of
expertise. Their full-time presence is supported by practitioners
from outside the University, who offer their teaching specialities
in accordance with the policy of inviting outside experts to
supplement the courses taught from within the Department.
