HNSM 262 - Globalization and Civilization3 hours
What does it mean to be a citizen in today’s world? How will the “next generation” preserve humane values in the world of tomorrow? From a close reading of Plato’s Republic, Jared Diamond’s Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed, Sigmund Freud’s Civilization and Its Discontents, Samuel Huntington’s The Clash of Civilizations, and Jonathan Sack’s The Dignity of Difference, students will explore the possibilities and problems of achieving peace, security, and prosperity in the midst of a rapidly changing social and physical environment.
