Description :Is contemporary society characterized by constant change or is it just an illusion? This course explores contemporary theories as they relate to social change and reproduction. It examines the ways in which contemporary theories articulate social structure and action, address the process of socialization, culture, social stratification and individual dynamics. The contribution of contemporary theories to the understanding of several major social processes that have characterized our era since the late 1960s, including post-industrialization, individualization, globalization, and cultural movements, is also discussed. Relationships between these theories, including tensions, conflicts and exclusions they generate.Posting limited to:Professeur à temps-partiel régulier / Regular Part-Time ProfessorDate Posted:avril 24, 2024Closing Date:mai 25, 2024Note: Applications will be accepted until 11:59 PM on the day prior to the Posting End Date aboveExpected Enrolment:88Approval date:avril 24, 2024Number of credits:3Work Hours:39Course type:BPosting type:Régulier / RegularLanguage of instruction:Anglais | EnglishCompetence in second language:PassiveCourse Schedule:Jeudi | Thursday 19:00-22:00 - - In-person courseRequirements:Requirements: M.A. in sociology and completed sociology Ph.D. coursework or a more advanced training in sociology.
