SS-310 Cities Cultures

3 Credits

Beginning with a brief history of the development of urban collectivities, this course will take a cross-cultural look at the similarities and differences in areas such as concentrations of populations, cultural exchange, social power, centers of government, manufacturing, money management, trade, and religion, among others. The course also examines the issue of power differentials played out over time in spatial arrangement, social control, work, and leisure.
