This subject has two main objectives:
- To offer students theoretical and practical resources to develop a critical and diverse reading of the city.
- To promote a multidisciplinary understanding of the city, provoking dialogue, fundamentally and not only, between history, geography and the arts, as well as an approach to the knowledge of those other practices, subaltern and non-dominant, that also construct the city.
In terms of the competences that students acquire:
Students are able to apply their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional manner and possess the competences usually demonstrated through the development and defence of arguments and problem solving within their field of study.
Students have the ability to gather and interpret relevant data (usually within their field of study) in order to make judgements which include reflection on relevant social, scientific or ethical issues.
Students should be able to communicate information, ideas, problems and solutions to both specialist and non-specialist audiences.
That students master the technique of cultural analysis of any socio-cultural phenomenon.
To know how to analyse and critically understand the normative, ethical and moral elements of different cultural practices.
