4.00 Credits
St Lawrence University
A comprehensive overview of the theory of plate tectonics. The historical development of the theory is reviewed, considering in detail the contributions of continental drift, geosynclines, apparent polar wandering, sea floor spreading and geomagnetic reversals. Current interpretations of the plate tectonic theory are discussed in relation to rock assemblages, geophysics and paleogeographic reconstructions. There is a significant emphasis on the nature and origin of orogenic belts. Prerequisite: permission of instructor.

Geology-Physics 221: Global Ecology and Global Political Economy
4.00 Credits
St Lawrence University
This seminar addresses how processes of contemporary globalization shape and reshape the nature of ecological questions. What is entailed in the construction of an ecological perspective that is sensitive not only to the pressures on the Earth imposed by global capital accumulation, but also to the tradition of the oppressed in their everyday struggles for social justice? The course examines why social movements concerning women's issues, the environment, poor people and civil rights are increasingly seeing social and political ecology as fundamental to their long-term strategies, and compares the ways environmental questions have been raised in different geographical spaces of the world economy.
