Course taught by new Assistant Professor Adam Bledsoe starting in Fall 2019
Class Description:
INSTRUCTOR: Assistant Professor Kate Derickson It is common today to talk about living in a global world and for much of our lives the world has been nothing a global world. Why then a course on globalization? First, it is important to think about the forces that have come to shape other world we live in. We need to ask why is the world economy organized the way it is? How is our security tied into the development of global geopolitics? Is global culture wiping away the differences between places? Second, we need to look at how globalization continues to shape the world we live in. Global connections between places are constantly changing. The forces of globalization continue to have an impact on our lives and our livelihoods; they continue to shape the lives and livelihoods of others. The possibilities that people in different parts of the world and of different situations have for a good life is very much tied to the nature, the density and the profound unevenness of global connections. Geography is a discipline particularly suited for the study of globalization because of its focus on the spatial dimensions of globalization. Attending to this dimension gives the geographer a unique ability to understand the connections and differences between places, the way that these geographical relations shape our experience of the world, and what it means to live in a world in which our everyday lives are lived amid relations that stretch around the world. Geography involves more than asking `where?, it also involves asking how and why places are like they are, and seeks to understand the geographical processes and relations that made them that way. It involves understanding the world `in the making?. Not just a `global? world, but a world that is dynamic and continuously changing. Not just a world of differences, but a world in which differentiation is continuously occurring: a globalizing world. Instructor: Assistant Professor Kate Derickson
