Take me to the Fall Time Schedule
220/Soc. 220. Political Economy. (4).
(SS).
The course explores human society from an interdisciplinary social scientific
perspective anchored in political economic analysis. The primary focus in
on modern capitalism, especially as it has developed in the United States.
The contributions of a wide range of social analysis are examined with an
emphasis on recent work. Historical and theoretical points are considered
in close relation to current affairs and to potential feasible alternatives
to prevailing social relations. Students are encouraged to explore their
own interests and ideas about policies and institutions as well as to develop
their capacities for social analysis. Written work consists of a take-home
midterm, a final examination, and a term paper on some political economic
topic. The course provides extensive opportunities for discussion. (Gateway)
