SOCI 2320 Social Problems

This course explores the relationship of social problems to social structure at the global level, with specific emphasis on poverty, hunger, exploitation, violence, and environmental degradation.  We will build a foundation for understanding how these problems arise, apply sociological concepts to their analysis, and then explore why solutions to such problems may involve structural changes which, in turn, may create new problems.
