SOC 301 - Social Life in Global Cities
Prerequisites: SOC 100 or URBN 100 or consent of instructor
This course connects you to two key global cities (for example London and Paris). Students visit key city sites (museums, memorials, and street markets). Students contrast the urban social life of these cities: use of sidewalks, use of public transportation, consumption patterns, and security practices. Attention is given to each city’s important ‘third places’, changing social geography, urban restructuring, and contemporary cultural manifestations. Students will engage in research projects incorporating introductory field research.
