Description:

PQ: SOSC 11200. Spring Quarter analyzes the way in which selected themes of the first two quarters worked themselves out in the history of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. We consider questions of the proper role of the state in the economy; the difficulty posed to liberalism by specific identity characteristics of citizens (or noncitizens), including gender, race, and ethnic claims; and the relationship between liberal ideals and governing practices and the political ideals and governing practices of non-liberal/non-Western societies in the global environment. Readings include texts by Hayek, Polanyi, Freud, Fanon, de Beauvoir, Anzaldúa, Asad, and Huntington.
