Human Behavior in the Social Environment II

Catalog description

This is the second semester of a two-semester course sequence within which students use theory and empirical data to assess human behavior as it develops within a variety of sociopolitical environments. A strengths-based, empowerment- focused paradigm is developed to help students conceptualize the interactions among social identities, such as race, class, ethnicity, sexual orientation and gender expression, as they influence human behavior in larger sociopolitical entities, such as groups, organizations, and communities.
