At a time when 'Englishness' is being re-defined and re-imagined current debates in the media will also inform class discussions. The course will include a visit to Tate Britain and other sites of relevance. Film and video recordings and possibly a theatre trip will also feed into our studies.

  • ANTH 34361: Global London

    0.00 Credits
    University of Notre Dame

    Global London introduces students to the discipline and methods of sociology and explores global issues and international connections through the prism of cosmopolitan London. This is the core course of all academic studies in the London Program, and reflects the importance we place on both the global and the local London contexts which permeate all aspects of our curriculum. A key objective of the course is to support students in becoming active global citizens. Their global awareness is developed through increasing their knowledge of aspects of world history, deepening their appreciation of global cultures and strengthening their commitment to global concerns. A further objective of the course is to learn to see and think sociologically about our lives and the world we live in and will also show how a sociological perspective is similar to and different from the approaches taken in other social science disciplines. The first part of the course introduces students to the idea and practice of the "sociological imagination," the concept of "global," "cosmopolitan" and sociological approaches to history by examining how London was constituted through its role as the hub of the British Empire. Students will be encouraged to see and imagine these histories as they begin to experience living in London. We then move on to understand London as a modern "Global City." We examine specific aspects of social and cultural lives in London that have created and continue to be formed by London's global connections. Although the intellectual core of this part of the course is sociological, it includes historical material that is used to contextualise and understand the present.
