The course offers a theoretical and practical background into processes of social, cultural, economic, and physical change in urban society. Themes covered include urban planning and policy, social movements, injustice, and inequality based on socio-economic status, race, nationality, ethnicity, sexuality, and gender. Students will be equipped with the tools and vocabulary to refine their interests and to explore these themes in further detail in subsequent courses.
