Course/Module description:
This course deals with a sociological examination of the essence of globalization and its implications as the most sweeping social process of our time. As part of this course, we will review sociological approaches to the study of globalization and will examine the social phenomena of the global age which we live in. We will discuss the globalization process and its implications and try to understand whether there are still significant "global" and "local" or have they been replaced by a "global" configuration? We will look at how the world government system was constructed, and what are the implications of globalization for the character of communities, social institutions and the identity of the people living in this world society. The discussion of these issues will be done while examining different case studies from the global and local realities.
