Course Catalog Description
Advanced study in sociology, with specific topics to be announced at the beginning of each semester.
Class Description
Discrimination is a social phenomenon that could implicate people of different races, ages, sexes, genders, religions, sexual orientations, heights, weights, physical capabilities, and more. Given this possibility, the course introduces and analyzes the major social science definitions of discrimination, then turns its attention to considering the social scientific challenge of establishing the existence and effects of discrimination. The third part of the course critically considers multiple potential policy responses to discrimination.
