SOCI 385: Regulating the Addicted and Impaired
3.00 Credits
Saint John Fisher University
This course examines how society manages and regulates populations who are chemically dependent and populations who are mentally impaired. These populations are both marginalized in the U.S., though for very different reasons. Addicts are often blamed for their own condition and therefore treated as outcasts. The impaired, though not blamed for their condition, are seen as a burden and generally ignored and shunned, remaining at the margins of society. The purpose of this course is to examine the life worlds of these two populations and to investigate how society regulates and disciplines such people through a variety of social institutions-prisons, hospitals, long-term care facilities, etc. Students examine the origins of different forms of social control for the addicted and impaired and consider contemporary options in this regard. Prerequisite: SOCI 101D.
