Faculty

Prerequisite: LARTS 111 . This course focuses social, cultural, and political understandings of the world around us. This means moving beyond individualistic and either/or frameworks to think in a more nuanced way about how social patterns, social identities, and social inequities develop in place and time. Key areas of exploration include social identity and belonging; the ways in which power and authority are institutionalized; alternative accounts of justice; and the sources of social transformation.
