  • SO 301: The Family

    1.00 Credits
    Wagner College

    One unit. This course explores the family as an emotional, economic, historical and sociocultural institution. Families hold great paradox. On the one hand, they are a deeply mundane and ordinary part of human experience; and on the other hand, families contain incredible drama, vast pain and profound love. They both shape our individual lives and social world, and are fundamentally shaped by our society and history. In this course, we will make use of a variety of texts in exploring the family - with a focus on the American family - through the twentieth century. We will look at cultural notions of what families "should" beand social realities of what families actually have been/are in terms of marriage and sexuality, work, popular culture, domestic violence, and law and social policy. Throughout the term, we will consider differences and similarities in the experiences of families across lines of class, race, gender and sexual orientation. Offered spring semester.
