| Course contents : | As final requirement of the Bachelor's degree, Political Science students have to write a final paper on a topic to be approved by the professor. This essay must not imply an original research but rather it is the synthesis of what has been written on the topic. A significant bibliographical research - to be used in the paper - is therefore required. The students are asked to offer an original argument by the comparison of several sources as well as to show critical insight and the ability to synthesize. |
