HIST 350 - Global Social Movements


CR: 3
Prerequisite: Any HIST, POLS, or PHIL class. Social movements are collective forms of political action that work outside of established, institutional structures. This course examines the origins, dynamics, and consequences of social movements through applying movement theory and utilizing empirical case studies throughout the globe. Studying social movements will allow us to reflect on more general questions about the nature of political power, conflict, and legitimacy, as well as the relationship between human agency, social structure, and historical change. This course will consider a range of social movements both in the United States and internationally. Offered alternate years. III.O
