    Description
    This course offers a sociological analysis of the family, including: historical and recent changes; present nature and current family structures; and the socio-cultural and economic forces shaping these changes in families. Students will explore topics such as: dating, communication, conflict resolution, human sexuality, family planning, parenthood, divorce/separation, remarriage, aging, changing gender roles, and family economics. Using an intersectional, theoretical, and critical lens, students will explore the impact of oppression on family life as well as how families can function as agents of social change. (C-ID SOCI130)
