SUNY College at Old Westbury

Subject:

Sociology

Description:

Provides an overview of the contemporary sociological models used to analyze the dynamics of protest among disenfranchised constituencies in the U.S. Cases are drawn largely from the history of African American protest movements of the 19th and 20th century in which activists have attempted to reconcile tensions between demand for civil rights and the more radical vision of nationhood. Government and countermovement responses to protest are also examined. Offered every year. Prerequisite: SY 2500; EMS
