History and Politics, BA (Hons) History and Politics, BA (Hons) with a Year Abroad

History is past politics, and politics present history - or so it used to be claimed. Historians now consider many different aspects of the past, beyond the political. But studying politics together with history remains one of the most popular ways to benefit from combining distinct but complementary subjects. Common themes that can be explored through the two disciplines include the history of political thought, the development and exercise of democracy, identity politics, movements for social justice, conflict, and the role of successive superpowers (Britain, America) in shaping the world.

International Relations and History, BA (Hons) International Relations and History, BA (Hons) with a Year Abroad International Relations and History, BA (Hons) with a Year in Industry

Globalisation, human rights, international development, humanitarianism, diplomacy, conflict resolution and security - these are all aspects of the subject of international relations, focused on the recent past and the present. But many of these topics have a long history, reaching far back into the past.

By combining history with international relations, these programmes can help you develop a deeper historical perspective on the pressing concerns of the present.
