SOC 2031: Sociology of Family & Sex Roles (3 cr.)

The family has become a central concern of recent politics as people debate whether it is disintegrating or simply changing, whether it oppresses women or provides them with their natural role. This course will examine what forms the family has taken and the interactions between the family and the larger society. It also will explore various political and policy issues regarding the family, such as child care, labor force discrimination, and the problem of domestic violence.
