SOC 306 - London: The Global City

G, S, 4 credits. AS1.

London was central in the formation of modern global networks 500 years ago and is central to global political, economic, and cultural processes today. Students explore these processes firsthand with native Londoners, government officials, community organizations, and business people; a trip to Paris provides a comparison. With faculty guidance, students develop projects using qualitative or quantitative methods on social processes specific to global cities.
