Comments/contents:
In this seminar, we will look to discuss the concept of social citizenship that is the part of the relationship between citizens, state and market that refers to social rights and obligations but not civil and political ones. Social rights and obligations can be conceptualised as a basic precondition for participation in society, which allows us to face each other as ‘equals’. The idea of social citizen ship was first developed by the British sociologist T.H. Marshall and since then it has evolved and been adapted by different sources. Fundamental in this respect are feminist authors who critisize the gendered nature of citizenship and the activation discourse. The main share of the seminars´ literature will be in English.
Learning objectives:
- Insights in the idea and basic conceptions of social citizenship
- Developing building blocks of a theory of social citizenship
- insights in empirical analysis on international differences in social citizenship and its outcomes in relation to inequality and participaton
- A deepenend knowldedge in scientific work
Didactic concept:
The seminar will take place fortnightly (every second week) and as long as we are forced by the corona pandemic the seminar will be held online, which is of course is a restraint. We are going to explore the topics by the basic literature provided in the seminar plan, which I will provide in time. To organise the seminar we will use OpenOlat, because it is more flexible than Stine. There you will find the basic literature which should be read by everyone and questions posed which we will discuss during the seminar meetings (on or offline). If you have no OpenOlat account yet, please create one. If you are enrolled to the seminar in Stine and have an OpenOlat account, you should automatically have access to the seminar in OpenOlat. If this does not work, which happens in quite a few cases, please send me an email with your OpenOlat account name and email adress.
