Exeter has a long-standing reputation as one of the UK’s premier centres of expertise in the history of political ideas and discourse and is the home of the discipline’s leading journal, History of Political Thought.
This Masters programme offers the opportunity to study in detail Ancient, early-Modern and Modern political thought through the analysis of specific periods, texts and thinkers. It will equip you with the skills necessary to proceed to doctoral research through a focus on important debates on methodological approaches to the subject.
The degree looks both at important individual texts in the history of political thought and at methodological and interpretative issues in the field. An innovative feature allows you to pursue short individual research essays on subjects of your choice with a wide range of scholars within the College and throughout the University.
