SOCY 69 The Sociology of Globalization

This interdisciplinary course provides a critical approach to global urban studies, with a particular focus on race, migration, and the built environment. By scrutinizing sites of “globalization”—ships, railroads, ports, islands, plantations, canneries, slums, camps, museums, ghettos, cemeteries, infrastructures, archives—students will explore themes such as segregation, slave trade, anti-blackness, urban violence, settler colonialism, urban renewal, necropolitics, and environmental racism. The course will engage in a historical and postcolonial dialogue to offer students critical methods to “spatialize” intertwined histories of racial closure across continents.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
