Additional Course Info | Class Number: 2156 How do we make sense of a globalizing world and its workings? This course, which is the gateway to the proposed minor in Comparative & Transnational Studies is for students who are intrigued by that question. So we examine ideas, institutions, and processes in transnational perspective, looking at how important phenomena were shaped and re-shaped as they were passed around the globe and reinterpreted by various actors. We also consider various comparisons of phenomena across countries, cultures, and areas, taking note of how and when they show us similarities we had ignored, or differences we had missed.; Enrollment Limit: 25 Social Science, B: Analysis of the Social World, A: Meaning, Interpretation (Texts) (; Hav: SO, B, A) |
