POLS 430 - LAW, POLITICS AND SOCIETY

Hours: 5
This course draws upon work done by political and social theorists, political scientists, sociologists, psychologists, and criminologists to examine the relationship between law, politics and the social world. The class will focus on the ways in which law constructs social reality and how social reality constructs the law. We will investigate this theme theoretically and through case examples paying close attention to the role stories (or narratives) play in the construction of our legal paradigms.
Prerequisites: POLS 115 or permission of instructor.
