SOCI 361 - Law and Culture in Global Perspective FC SSCI CD WADV 4 credits This course aims to introduce students to theoretical debates about the nature of modern law, and to establish a comparative, empirical understanding of how law relates to culture in a global perspective. The course is divided into two parts. Part 1 outlines the ways that scholars from various disciplines have answered the question, What is law? Building on this theoretical foundation, we will then examine how the cultural aspects of law-in-action i) shape individuals legal consciousness, ii) structure organizational forms and practices, and iii) constitute unequal relations of power within and between societies across the globe. Course Last Offered/Scheduled: Spring 2019
