The course presents an interdisciplinary approach to exploring the history and contemporary challenges of global citizenship. A brief survey of past engagement with the concept provides historical context for modern consideration of such themes as migration, identity, and the relationship between personal liberty and communal responsibility. Analysis of varying sources will focus on the possibility that global citizenship may be the most promising model with which to tackle such ongoing complex problems as global pandemics, racial injustice, and climate change.
The purpose of this course is to give adult students an introduction to critical sociological ways of thinking that apply explicitly to real world settings. The course will accomplish this by focusing on the institutions of criminal justice, education, the workplace, and health care. These institutions have been chosen for their breadth and because they connect more directly to the lives of students-as most work, have dealings with healthcare and education, and have had some direct or indirect experience with the criminal justice system).
