SOC 332 - Social Constructions of Difference: Race, Ethnicity, and Class


The course will first introduce students to the vast theoretical literature on the concepts of race, ethnicity and class from sociology and anthropology.  Second, the course will expect students to shift focus away from looking at different cultures to analyzing cultural productions of difference.  In the course we will be concerned with how racial, ethnic and class identities are shaped by diverse hegemonic systems, modes of resistance, and the structuring of social relations in different societies.
