PSCI 439: Politics Of Minority Economic Development
3.00 Credits
Northeastern Illinois University
This course investigates political and social factors related to the economic development of minority groups in the United States. The demise of legalized segregation has meant racial and ethnic minorities no longer face official barriers to economic success. However, most minority groups (particularly black Americans and Latinos) continue to have lower levels of overall employment, income, and wealth than do whites. This course investigates political and social phenomena contributing to these patterns, as well as efforts by minority groups, supportive whites, and government actors in addressing minority economic issues.

PSCI 445: Homeland Security: Policies, Politics, And Administration
3.00 Credits
Northeastern Illinois University
In the wake of the events of September 11, 2001, America has struggled to both re-write its understanding of "security" within its borders and to reorganize its resources committed to maintaining "securirty". Out of these efforts have emerged not only a new Department of Homeland Security, built from portions of more than a dozen other agencies and bureaus, but also a sense of insecurity in the American people. This course is designed to explore both of these aspects: the revamping of the bureaucracy responsible for "homeland security", and the impact on the population of this sense of uncertainty within borders. Students will examine the impact of these developments on state and local resources committed to "security" in communities, evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of the new "homeland security" efforts on the national, state, and city levels.
