SOCI 067 - Social Interaction

Institution:

University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Description:

Staff. This course combines the study of social psychology with that of social interaction. Its primary focus is on the forces shaping individual action in a variety of face-to-face settings, whether in informal groups, in classrooms, in work environments, in urban public spaces and other kinds of situations. We will begin with more general concepts and approaches and then venture into the realm of emotions and "feeling rules" that seem to operate in both private and public relationships before ending with a discussion of how face-to-face encounters interact with the social inequalities of gender, class and race.
