Sociology 216 - Tpc: Globalizatn,Orgs,Inequal

'The past thirty years have been marked by increasing attention to international trade and the emerging global marketplace. Who is driving these economic changes? If the world is changing, what strategies should states, industries, and firms employ to become a dominant player? This course will explore questions such as these using sociological theories and analytical techniques. We will study three important levels of social organization (nation-states, industries, and firms) in order to understand how each influences the others. You will learn how to assess competing accounts of the global economy and draw your own informed conclusions.'
