    Description
    The course discusses the radical new version of human society that has accompanied the spread of global capitalism: political and cultural transformations, the life-style adjustments that have coincided with these grand social trends and an unprecedented level of global inequality. Introduces students to the macrosociological perspective studying the development of the capitalist world system, how this system impacts politics, culture and the economy, and resistance to the growth of global capitalism. Honors course enrichment through limited class size, seminar format, more extensive reading and discussion of major concepts, theoretical perspectives, and empirical findings. Credit in SOC 3 or 3H, not both.
