DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this module is to critically assess the themes of disenfranchisement and social exclusion across Irish and the wider global society. Students will consider the role of law both in addressing and/or perpetuating the phenomenon of social exclusion through a consideration of key aspects of welfare law. Comparative and international law perspectives will also be considered. Students will also draw on non-legal material in order to first situate the problems under discussion. Students are expected to attend lectures, contribute to discussion and undertake reading in the area.
