Faculte des sciences sociales
Is contemporary society characterized by constant change or is it just an illusion? This course explores contemporary theories as they relate to social change and reproduction. It examines the ways in which contemporary theories articulate social structure and action, address the process of socialization, culture, social stratification and individual dynamics. The contribution of contemporary theories to the understanding of several major social processes that have characterized our era since the late 1960s, including post-industrialization, individualization, globalization, and cultural movements, is also discussed. Relationships between these theories, including tensions, conflicts and exclusions they generate.
