Our personal lives are linked to increasingly dense networks of global interrelations, as the integration of societies, economies, and cultures fundamentally transforms human life. It is impossible to understand the world in the early 21st century without understanding globalization and its consequences. With this in mind, the objective of this course is to explore what has come to be known as globalization studies, and in particular, to survey the distinct themes sub-areas that make up the sociology of globalization.
