GS 413

Globalization Unhinged

This course looks at the limits of globalization, particularly through the lenses of global financial crises, climate change and social conflict. Following an in-depth examination of primary sources and classic studies on these topics the course moves towards an exploration of 'alternate globalizations' through which human beings, communities and the environment can flourish together. Prerequisites: Honours standing in Global Studies and at least 1.0 credit in 300 level GS courses, or permission of the department/instructor.
