Introduction to Global Studies I: People & Politics
This is the first in a three-semester series of core courses designed to introduce students to the field of global studies and to processes of globalization. The course’s approach is interdisciplinary and thematic, with special attention to the political, economic, social, historical and cultural patterns that are defining the modern world – its “people” and its “politics.” The course explores alternative theoretical frameworks that have been used to offer meaningful explanations of “globalization” and other social phenomena. In doing so, it necessarily examines the nature, infrastructures, and interrelationships of human collectivities, organizations, institutions, and cultures.
