SOC 0317 - GLOBAL SOCIETY

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
The aim is to analyze the dynamics of civilization in today's interconnected world. How is people's social and cultural life shaped by their position in the world, by local traditions and distant forces? How have the independently coexisting civilizations of earlier centuries become incorporated into a global civilization in which colonial empires and the communist regime have given way to wider democracy and a capitalist regime with global dynamics? How is Western culture (beliefs, values and symbols) disseminated and embraced, modified or resisted in non-Western societies?
