History with Politics, BA (Hons)

The BA History with Politics at Goldsmiths offers an innovative, interdisciplinary exploration of how social, cultural, and political institutions, decisions, and events have shaped global societies. Rather than emphasizing chronology or fixed periods, it fosters analysis of key issues, controversies, themes, and debates, highlighting the enduring importance of understanding the past to build emotional intelligence, appreciate human diversity, and shape equitable futures with insight, fairness, and compassion.Our approaches to politics strip away the formal layers of parties and institutions to uncover ideological, economic, social, and cultural conflicts. By crossing traditional and radical boundaries, you gain a comprehensive view of politics as a force permeating all society, domestically and internationally.
