As with any
science, the social sciences (anthropology, economic, political
science, psychology, and sociology) use models to map and explain
the relationships between things in our world, including ourselves.
In this course, we examine models for
strengths and weaknesses and judge their relevance for explaining
and understanding collective existence. We critique models so we
can build better models. Problems addressed this semester include
order, change, consensus, conflict, action, self, and power. |
