SOCI 110. Social Issues in a Global Context [C4GE]


Credits 3.00 PeopleSoft Course ID 010013

This course introduces the discipline of sociology from a macrosociological perspective, emphasizing large-scale changes in social organization and institutions. We examine the global forces that shape societies, and the historical, political, social, cultural and economic origins of contemporary social problems. We consider competing theoretical models used in the study of social change as well as the conceptual and methodological challenges in analyzing societies different from one’s own. May be used for general education credit.
