About the course

Justice is at the core of societal and state formation and it has been a major area of attention in the reforms in Post-Soviet Eurasia. This course focuses on gender relations, ethnocultural pluralism and environmental governance as areas of heated societal and political debate around inequalities and a need for more just arrangements.

Selected theoretical frames of justice are introduced to provide models and conceptual tools for you to discuss and evaluate injustices. Discussions will revolve around legal documents, administrative practices, societal structures, cultural knowledge and customs where students can identify and analyse the sources of gender, ethnocultural and environmental inequalities.
