Science Policy in an Era of Risk and Uncertainty (HPSC0093)

This module brings together key thinkers, debates, and cutting-edge research on how society engages with uncertainty and risk. Diverse research methodologies and interdisciplinary skills will be applied in practical case studies to demonstrate the challenges experts in these subjects face with working on globally complex problems. In this module we discuss the challenges of integrating interdisciplinary data sets, and we examine the potential for more deliberative and participatory engagement with stakeholders. The module adopts a problem-based learning approach, using case studies of specific current interest.

Histories of Global London, 1900 to the Present (I) (BARC0129)

Taking London as our primary case study this module focuses on understanding how the city’s built environment has been shaped by its global connections and associated population flows, from 1900 to the present. It considers the changing framework of planning and community development legislation at a number of definitive moments, such as the publication of the County of London Plan (1943). The module draws on ethnographic, literary and visual sources to analyse key changes in the built environment in relation to the cultural representation of minority social groups. It will augment understandings of the significance of ‘subaltern’ community identities, ethnicities, cultural practices and intangible heritage in the formation of particular London neighbourhoods and built landscapes during this period, positioning the city’s global histories and diversity as central to a critical understanding of its urban heritage and futures. The module asks students to engage critically with questions such as: how do we assess urban heritage as a social, cultural and economic asset for urban development in complex multicultural/postcolonial cities (UNESCO 2011)? Participants engage with key debates in the history and theory of urban change in relation to theories of identity, critical heritage, and equalities. Part 1 focuses on historical, theoretical and methodological contexts.
