1 GLOBAL AND LOCAL INEQUALITIES (SOCIOLOGY 325) Professor Leslie McCall Department of Sociology Room 305, 1812 Chicago Avenue Office Hours: Thurs 2:00-4:00 TA Fiona Chin Department of Sociology 1 st Floor, 1812 Chicago Ave Office Hours: TBA COURSE DESCRIPTION This course provides a broad and interdisciplinary introduction to the topic of inequality by considering historical and global trends in different forms of inequality in addition to the focus on contemporary patterns of economic and social inequality in the United States. We first consider conceptual and normative perspectives on equality/inequality and the historical context of industrialization that gave rise to classical theories of inequality in Western Europe. In this first part we also examine historical trends and contemporary patterns of inequality and poverty in the United States. We then focus on a range of different types of inequality inequality by education, opportunities for upward mobility, gender, race/ethnicity, and immigrant status. In the last few weeks of the term, we examine inequality in the political arena, such as inequality in political participation and influence. We end with a set of readings that discusses a range of possible ways to understand public policies and other practices that can alter current patterns of social inequality. COURSE REQUIREMENTS This course will only be interesting if you actively participate in it. That means attending class and demonstrating that you have read and thought about the readings for the day. I have purposely kept the reading load manageable; in exchange, I expect you to be prepared to discuss the readings in class. Class participation of this kind counts for 20 percent of your grade, with 10 percent for attendance and 10 percent for participation in discussions. An additional 10 percent of your grade will be based on your preparation of a summary and discussion topics and questions for one or two (TBA) class periods over the course of the term. There will also be an exam in the fourth week (worth 25 percent) and a final exam (worth 25 percent). The final 20 percent of your grade will be based on a group project on a form of inequality that is not discussed in class or in the readings in any substantial depth (but must be related to aspects of inequality that are discussed in class and in the readings). More information about all of these assignments will be provided in class. REQUIRED COURSE TEXTS Manza, Jeff and Michael Sauder, eds Inequality and Society: Social Science Perspectives on Social Stratification. W. W. Norton. Referenced as MS below. 1
