SOCI 304 - Loose Canons: Constructing the Classics in Law and Society
3SS New Course Added 10/24/2006 Spring Semester. Disciplines are often understood through their classical/canonical texts. But what happens when disciplines collide? We will explore the merging (and emerging) canons of law and society scholarship, an interdisciplinary field including law, sociology, politics, history, anthropology, etc. We will study canonical texts as an advanced law and society course, and we will consider their canonicity as a case study in the sociology of knowledge.
Prerequisites & Notes Prerequisite: One course in Sociology or consent of instructor.
