University of Alaska Southeast

Subject:

Geography

Description:

3 credits (3+0) Examines how space is produced through the creative ferments of social struggle over domination and insubordination. Our central concern will focus upon the differences and inequalities produced across various spatial scales, such as the urban, regional, national, and transnational, as well as oppositions of scale, such as city and country, center and periphery, and local and global. This course will engage theoretical questions, and will situate these inquiries within ethnographic and historical texts that clarify the principal dynamics involved in the social production of space. Prerequisite: GEOG S101 or instructor permission.
