Course Description
Anthropology's long-term ethnographic method, within a specific cultural setting, allows for a particularly intimate understanding of people's experiences of the social worlds they inhabit. This course shows the importance of this experiential intimacy for understanding some of the key issues associated with globalisation: the culturally diverse forms of global capitalism, the transnational communities emanating from global population movements, the transformations of colonial and post-colonial cultures, and the rise of global movements and the corresponding transformation of Western nationalism.

Course Description
This course explores the main sociological approaches to childhood and youth in modern industrial societies, as well as the ways in which particular perspectives on childhood are central to all social theory. Students examine the debates surrounding the historical development of childhood and the various approaches to the impact of state intervention and social policies, from both the experiences of childhood and youth and the transition to adulthood. Further topics of study include the social construction of child abuse; youth homelessness and youth criminality as social problems; the stolen generations; children and the law; the fertility decline; and the differentiation of childhood experience along lines of class, gender, race, and ethnicity.

Course Description

Are time and space substances, or is there nothing more to them than the relations between objects or events? How is time different from space? Does time have a direction? If it does, what gives it its direction? If it doesn't, why does it seem to us that it does? Does space have a direction? This course investigates the nature of time and space and objects (including persons) within space and time.
