Ringkasan program

This program focuses on the systematic analysis of the global processes and social structures underlying many of the most significant and vexing aspects of social change today. It examines the historical evolution of these macro-level processes and the ways in which local communities experience these global forces. Thus, students study the broad (but very real) economic, social, political, military dimensions of the global economy. Its goal is to provide students with both the theoretical background and methodological tools necessary to conduct informed, empirical research in academic and policy related careers. The CIS program emphasizes two central points. First, sociology is inherently comparative and, second, sociological questions are most appropriately evaluated empirically. Within this general framework it is possible to study a wide range of sociological issues, such as national development, inequality, organizations, urbanization, immigration, global elites, environmental degradation, gender and ethnicity, and crime and delinquency.
