Class Objectives /Class Outline |
This class aims to explore the change in British class, especially focusing on the working class and the underclass from the 19th century to the present. In addition, students work on a case study on the British society and analyze the class issue further. In this class, students read the texts that analyze or report British poverty issues written between the 19th century to the 21st century. Every week, in the first half of the class, students discuss the issues presented in the texts. In the second half of the class, students choose one topic in the British society and explore it under the instructor's supervision. They write a term paper based on the research. |
