The City II

Catalog description

City II is the second semester of a two-semester-long survey introduction to the multi-disciplinary field of Urban Studies. Four broad substantive themes are examined: (1) Urban Political Economy; (2) the Social Psychology of Cities; (3) Urban Culture and Expressive Arts; and (4) Urbanism and Urban Issues. Course employs a modular focus and historical-comparative framework, but primary emphasis will be on the contemporary era.
