CD 521 - Social Theories of Community Based Practice


Prerequisites: None
This class investigates community and economic development theories within the context of classical and contemporary economic and social theories. Since community development is an inter-disciplinary field, students in this course will consider theories as diverse as location and place theories, micro- and macro-economics, structural-functional and conflict social theories, among others and how they are used, on a daily basis by community based practitioners. Students will formulate a basic theory of change to be applied in community-based practice.
