About this course

This is an interdisciplinary introduction to contemporary global problems and issues, with an emphasis on cultural events that impact all of our lives. Students will learn to explore, analyze, and identify local solutions to global issues and problems, through the lens of intrapersonal, interpersonal, institutional, and cultural perspectives. The impact of race, ethnicity, and inequality in world affairs, the processes of economic development and globalization, the environmental impacts of human activities, and people's experiences of war and peace will be analyzed. Consideration of various cultural points of view on processes of interdependent changes in our lives at global, regional, national, and local levels will be encouraged.
