Call it what you like though, political activism is exactly what it is, insists David Miller, sociology lecturer and co-director of the masters degree. “We’re not talking about violence, or any of the stereotypical images associated with activism,” he says. “What we look at is how to engage with the system in order to change things. This can, more often than not, mean working within – or in partnership with – existing organisations to exert influence, rather than operating on the outside. It’s not about shouting from the margins, it’s about being a role model for others and being effective.”
