Course description

Drawing upon sociological theories and concepts, this introductory course provides an overview of the processes of change affecting social life in Australia and abroad. Central to many of these trends is globalisation and we examine its impacts upon a range of issues at both the global and local levels. Topics include: class and inequality, race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, health and illness, along with media, urban sociology and sociology of the environment.
