Global Courses
Global Sociology
This is an experimental course in pursuit of the idea of a global sociology. It involves conversations recorded in 2011 between sociology students at the University of California, Berkeley and scholars from around the world. Each conversation was then made available to a global audience through the International Sociological Association. The videos can be viewed here.
