AAS 390 - Special Topics:Rethinking Globalization

Institution:

Adelphi University

Subject:

Description:

3 credits This course seeks to present important new perspectives on world citizenship. Technology is an important centerpiece of globalization, as are the internationalization of everyday life, and the emergence of global governance and its impact on civil society, local government, and international governing bodies like the United Nations. Globalization is chiefly about trade, global corporations, markets, financial products and services, global governance, migrating labor, and the expansion of the ownership of ideas and property. We use a multidisciplinary approach to examine an age of a new global citizenship and transnational civil society, in which we simply must know more about the variables and causal factors which will impact our lives.
