syllabus of Movies and Politics
常常羨慕那些電視上或廣播上的政論名嘴, 也很崇拜思路敏捷,辯才無礙的公眾人物或老師, 在台大, 我很幸運的碰到了三個: 歐茵西, 鄧志松, 和孫維新. 這些人都是在通識課遇到的, 各有各的教學風格 在這些老師ˇ的薰陶下真正體會到什麼叫做"如沐春風"尤其是上學期末上完鄧志松老師精華的三堂課後更是感動到的久久不能自己, 這學期, 我修了歐茵西的德文(其實部份是衝著她的文化素養來的)及鄧志松的電影與政治, 孫維新的認識星空留給大四, 系上課修的差不多後繼續在校園尋寶, 通識課是我選擇念台大的理由之一^^
下面是電影與政治的課程目標, 我對自己不敢抱有太大期望, 只希望我可以得到一些common sense. 不要人云亦云, 盡是無稽之談就好.
"The main purpose of this course is to give students a general conceptual framework which could serve as a useful instrument for understanding politics.
After the course students are expected to be familiar with a set of important political concepts, and learn how to apply it to analyze political issues.
The topics discussed are divided into four parts. The first is the general concepts of politics, including what politics is, how and why to learn politics. The second part focuses on the spectrum of political ideologies,from the left to the right, including Marxism, socialism, capitalism, and liberalism etc., the prototype and its various modifications as well. Different ideologies mean different images of world views, which are the basis of political ideals and the origin ofpolitical reform or revolution. The third part concerns with the relationships between the state and the
individuals. I will introduce different kinds of ruling types existed in the world, explore the idea of civil rights and evaluate various political activities, comparing their impacts on the society. The Final part is international politics, and a particular emphasis will be placed on the complicated conflicts between different states. All the topics discussed in the course are the most important issue, and were frequently discussed in the discipline of political science. "
