SOC 231 - Meaning, Politics and Difference: Sociology of Culture

Type of Course: Lecture, Discussion
This course applies several of the principal concepts, frameworks and theoretical approaches currently used in the sociology of culture and samples some of the major contemporary research in the field. The goal is to offer a range of approaches by which sociologists can examine and understand cultural forms and cultural phenomena. Readings focus on relations between culture and history, culture and power, culture and politics, culture and resistance, and culture and local environments. The course is intended to engage contemporary debates in culture, rather than to offer a conclusive and synthetic definition of the field.

Prerequisites: SOC 010  or COMM 101  is a prerequisite. Open to juniors and seniors only.
