Expanded Course Description
| This course is an introduction to the study of social issues, social problems, and social movements from a sociological perspective. We will examine and analyze the changing nature of particular social issues seen as social problems, and try to understand how they become defined and constructed in different ways in certain historical social and economic contexts and times. Our focus will be on the collective action of individuals as they participate in social movements to bring about social change in regards to something they define as a social problem and how these perspectives may be affected by race, class, gender, ethnicity, sexuality, and region of origin. We will discuss sociology's theoretical contributions to the study of social movements and we will try to understand the diverse motivations and intentions of movement participants. Examples of social issues and social movements will draw from the United States and international contexts. |
