Deciding between Sussex (Philosophy) and Warwick (Sociology) for an MA in Social & Political Thought. I'm interested in critical theory, political aesthetics, ideology, systems of power, and radicalisation.
Long-term goal is a PhD (doesn't have to be UK. I'm also wondering about how these universities are perceived in the rest of Europe)
My thoughts:
Sussex: Seems a bit more streamlined and has a more intimate study environment. But the Centre for Social and Political Thought seems a bit inactive recently.
Warwick: Although I know how strong Philosophy is at Warwick, I wonder about the Sociology Department – its a bit more difficult for me to find information about it.
Sussex seems more aligned with my interests but Warwick seems stronger as a university in general. If anyone knows about these programmes, I would be grateful ⚘
Thanks!
