SOCL 4030 - Families in Global Perspective

Hours: 4
This seminar explores family life in various forms using a global and dynamic point of view. More recent sociological research has made use of cross cultural theoretical frameworks on family life, some of which involves feminist and postmodern perspectives. Within the academy and the global community at large, there is a need to focus increasingly on the family as a social institution and socializing agent. Such insight is necessary for students in the social sciences, as well as those seeking to prepare for professional positions in social service agencies involving work with culturally diverse groups and communities.
Prerequisites: SOCL 1000 or permission of instructor.
