DD203 - Power, Dissent, Equality : End of Week 4

That's TMA 1 done and dusted, now for the post-TMA slump while we wait on the essays being marked and returned.

In the end the essay question "What makes something political?" seemed simple, but could be deceptively difficult to answer properly.

After the introduction I defined politics using several quotes from book and audio, then discussed narrow/wide - optimistic and sceptical, before picking 4 examples from the text, these being the detainees in Oz, refugees in the UK, the MMR vaccination and immigration statistics.

So, need to start Book 2 tomorrow, and try and keep up with the course timetable.
