  • SOCI 410: Sociology of Urban Planning and Policy

    3.00 Credits
    Bridgewater State University

    Prerequisite: SOCI 102 and SOCI 206 and SOCI 290; or consent of instructor This course examines urban and regional planning and policy from a sociological perspective. Large-scale social forces such as uneven urban development, urban sprawl, the decentralization of metropolitan areas and deindustrialization have produced changes in various dimensions of urban life, including housing, transportation, land use, urban renewal and neighborhood life. This course examines those social forces and changes to understand the rise of urban problems and how urban and regional planning and policy can help develop more livable cities and metropolitan regions. The course introduces students to the policies, issues, processes and tools of planning within the context of the history, sociology and theory of planning and regional change. In examining the social forces and structural constraints within which planning operates, the course emphasizes the importance of inequalities of race, ethnicity, class and gender. Although the course will examine planning broadly, it will at times focus on Southeastern Massachusetts. Offered every other year.
