Political Ideologies

Political ideologies shape how people understand power, justice, identity, and change in an increasingly complex world. This course explores the role of ideology in political life: how it informs beliefs, drives social movements, influences policy, and frames global debates. Through critical analysis and discussion, students will gain the tools to recognize and evaluate competing worldviews, understand their impact on contemporary society, and reflect on their own political assumptions.
