You can theoretically get funding from the esrc for an MA in something like this (or a university scholarship maybe), but if you have already started the course then it would be a problem I think. A career development loan (no repayments for 12 months, during the course, then you have to repay at exorbitant interest for the next so many years) was a fairly good option for me, and might be suitable as well. Funding for MA's seems to be getting harder and harder to come by unfortunately, especially in political/international studies. Hope that helps.
