  Enrollment limited to 24 Waitlist available: Y Mode of Instruction: Remote  
  Prerequisite: C- or better in Economics 101.
  With the rise of the internet, social media, and technology, there has been a shift in the availability and the power of data. Economists now have access to "big data" that can play a role in increasing economic activity and living standards. Examples include the development of new goods and services and faster innovation through a shorter research and development cycle, as a result of more and better data. Other benefits could affect our quality of life: fewer traffic jams and easier price comparisons. This course explores both the ways that "big data" has changed our understanding of the economy as well as the ethical issues related to the collection and use of these data.

  NOTE: Prerequisite: C-, P or better in Economics 301 or 302 if taken spring 2020.
  A major, and unexpected, recent development in the US is the degree to which the American public is becoming aware of the experiences of African Americans in the US economy, experiences with roots in slavery. What was slavery's role in the development and evolution of our economy? We will explore how the system of slavery was central to the development of our own financial system, to our participation in the 19th century global economy, to the accumulation of enormous wealth in both the southern and the northern states and finally, how this history continues to play an important role in our modern day economy by examining the new scholarship on American economic development, primary materials from museums, libraries and newspaper archives, and first-person accounts.

  How have advanced economies, such as the U.S., Germany and Australia, responded to the economic shocks created by the coronavirus? Have some national policies proven to be more successful than others, and if so, why? The many "real-time" experiments in policy design and execution have sparked lively debates. For example, would consumer demand be better maintained by boosting workers' unemployment payments, or would paying businesses directly to maintain their payrolls be the best way to go? What happens when the Fed expands its loan policies to include not only banks, but also corporations, small businesses, and local government? This seminar will explore these questions and consider the pros and cons of macroeconomic policies engineered by Congress, the executive branch, and other governments around the world.

1089 ENGL-298-90 Fairy Tales 1.00 LEC Bilston, Sarah WF: 10:00AM-1:15PM N/A HUM  
  Enrollment limited to 20 Waitlist available: Y Mode of Instruction: Remote  
  NOTE: For English majors, this course satisfies the requirement of a 200-level elective.
  For centuries, fairy tales have brought comfort, connection, and solace. At once magical and escapist, they offer avenues for self-reflection and practical lessons in managing life's challenges. This course examines both fairy tales and the scholarship devoted to understanding the genre. We will read tales written hundreds of years ago, from all over the world, together with contemporary rewritings, revisions, and repurposings in film, fiction, and poetry. We will read scholarly works that, using a range of critical methodologies, seek to identify what fairy tales offer and how they are structured. And we will work to produce both analytical essays and a creative intervention in the tradition: students will have the opportunity, at the end of the course, to write their own fairy tale.
1076 ENGL-322-90 What Is Romanticism? 1.00 SEM Bergren, Katherine TR: 10:00AM-1:15PM N/A HUM  
  Enrollment limited to 15 Waitlist available: N Mode of Instruction: Remote  
  NOTE: For English majors, this course satisfies the requirement of a course emphasizing literature written between 1700-1900.
  The Romantic era accounts for little over forty years of British literary history (roughly 1789-1832). Yet in spite of its short duration, it has had an out-sized effect on conceptions of what makes good and important literature. This course explores the distinctive genres, contentious relationships, and political obsessions of the Romantic period. From newly self-interrogating poetry to the rise of the Gothic novel, from the fight to end slavery to battles over the place of women and the poor, Romantic-era writers fanned the flames of change. We will explore what parts of their aesthetic and political legacy we want to embrace, and what parts we want to remember but rebuff. Authors include Jane Austen, Olaudah Equiano, Mary Prince, Mary Shelley, and William Wordsworth, among others.
1073 ENGL-366-90 Jane Austen:A Culture inCrisis 1.00 SEM Benedict, Barbara TR: 2:00PM-5:15PM N/A Y HUM  
  Enrollment limited to 15 Waitlist available: N Mode of Instruction: Remote  
  Jane Austen is unique in the pantheon of British writers: her novels remain among the most studied and the most beloved by both popular and academic readers across the globe. Why? How does she bridge these very different audiences? In this course, we will answer these questions by reading her complete opus, plus critical and biographical studies of her life and fiction. Students will explore her unique style, her blend of romance and cultural criticism, of feminism and conventionality, and the divergent (sometimes vehement) interpretations of her ideas, beliefs and aims through class discussion and research. This course satisfies the requirement of a Research Seminar and an upper-level course covering literature from 1700-1900 for the English major.

    Cross-listing: PBPL-807-90, URST-307-90
  This course uses the city and polity of Zanzibar as a model and laboratory for understanding the architectural history, geography and planning of Swahili Coast urbanism in East Africa. For more than a thousand years, cities along the East African coastal strip have been major entrepôts linking the African interior with trade networks across the Indian Ocean and beyond. Zanzibar was at the center of this urban region economically and politically especially in the 18thand 19th centuries. After gaining independence in 1963, Zanzibar experienced a socialist revolution and union with Tanganyika during a brief stretch in early 1964, after which it became a partner state in the United Republic of Tanzania. After a period of stasis and even decline, the city's population exploded after 1964. From a town of less than 50,000 people, it has grown to a metropolitan area of more than a half million in just over 55 years. Zanzibar's society and culture are heavily cosmopolitan. Over 90% of the population is Muslim and African-Swahili in ethnic terms, yet the influences (and minority cultures) of Christians, Hindus, Arabs, South Asians, and others abound. This is especially the case in the city's architecture and built environment. All of this makes Zanzibar a spectacular context in which to explore the challenges of balancing historic preservation and urban development in architecture and urban planning. This online course will enable students to investigate Zanzibar's historic importance, architectural significance, and contemporary urban planning and urban environmental challenges. Students will have readings, lectures and virtual visits and case analyses to/for specific important sites and urban planning projects.

  For centuries, scientists have explored how we learn, memorize, and forget items and for the last several decades have tried to determine where in the brain memories are encoded and stored. Recent developments in neuroscience are helping us understand how we learn, remember, forget, and relearn, including the structures, chemicals, and networks in the brain that are involved in these processes. Through enjoyable readings, discussions, guest lectures, films, and demonstrations, we will explore the foundations of this field, as well as recent discoveries and common misconceptions about it. The overall objective of this course is to provide students with a basic understanding of the neuroscience of learning and memory, enabling them to separate scientific fact from fiction in popular media and beyond.

  This course explores the role of gender in American politics. We will begin with an examination of the role of women and men in fighting for and against women's suffrage and the subsequent movement to achieve gender equality. We will consider the many ways men's inclusion and women's exclusion from our political system continues to shape contemporary politics and the distribution of power in American society. We will then examine a series of important questions such as: Why are women less likely than men to run for political office? Is America ready for a woman president? Once in office, do male and female politicians govern differently? The last third of the course examines a series of policy areas with respect to gender.

  For centuries, scientists have explored how we learn, memorize, and forget items and for the last several decades have tried to determine where in the brain memories are encoded and stored. Recent developments in neuroscience are helping us understand how we learn, remember, forget, and relearn, including the structures, chemicals, and networks in the brain that are involved in these processes. Through enjoyable readings, discussions, guest lectures, films, and demonstrations, we will explore the foundations of this field, as well as recent discoveries and common misconceptions about it. The overall objective of this course is to provide students with a basic understanding of the neuroscience of learning and memory, enabling them to separate scientific fact from fiction in popular media and beyond.

  Also cross-referenced with EDUC
  Sex and gender are used as principles of social organization in all known societies. This course surveys research in the sociological study of gender with the goal of providing students with a theoretical grounding for analyzing gender from a sociological perspective. We will explore how our lives and the world around us are shaped by gender and how gender has been constructed over time. We will further examine how sociological research on gender helps us to understand power and inequality at various levels – institutional, organizational, and interactional—by examining various topics such as gender socialization, reproduction, education, work, and violence. We will also pay attention to how gender reinforces and builds upon other areas of inequality such as social class, race, ethnicity, and age.

  This course broadly addresses women’s low status and power worldwide. Topics include issues such as son preference, gendered violence, maternal health and reproductive rights, sexual rights, work and household labor, globalization, politics, human rights, and women’s global activism. Utilizing a transnational sociological feminist perspective, students learn how gender inequality intersects with not only culture but also nationalism, racism, and economic injustice in various countries and regions of the world (Southeast Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and South America). At several key points, students engage in critical comparison between examples of gender oppression and exploitation observed in both the United States and other societies (i.e., gendered violence), which reveal a false binary in the discourse of progress often drawn between “us” and “them.”

  This course uses the city and polity of Zanzibar as a model and laboratory for understanding the architectural history, geography and planning of Swahili Coast urbanism in East Africa. For more than a thousand years, cities along the East African coastal strip have been major entrepôts linking the African interior with trade networks across the Indian Ocean and beyond. Zanzibar was at the center of this urban region economically and politically especially in the 18thand 19th centuries. After gaining independence in 1963, Zanzibar experienced a socialist revolution and union with Tanganyika during a brief stretch in early 1964, after which it became a partner state in the United Republic of Tanzania. After a period of stasis and even decline, the city's population exploded after 1964. From a town of less than 50,000 people, it has grown to a metropolitan area of more than a half million in just over 55 years. Zanzibar's society and culture are heavily cosmopolitan. Over 90% of the population is Muslim and African-Swahili in ethnic terms, yet the influences (and minority cultures) of Christians, Hindus, Arabs, South Asians, and others abound. This is especially the case in the city's architecture and built environment. All of this makes Zanzibar a spectacular context in which to explore the challenges of balancing historic preservation and urban development in architecture and urban planning. This online course will enable students to investigate Zanzibar's historic importance, architectural significance, and contemporary urban planning and urban environmental challenges. Students will have readings, lectures and virtual visits and case analyses to/for specific important sites and urban planning projects.

  Examine the roots of modern beauty standards by digging into the history of the “classical ideal”, down to its origins in Greek and Roman representations of the human body. Social status and beauty seem always to have been correlated; how are nudity and clothing, the athletic ideal, gender and sexuality, and racialized ideals of beauty implicated in portrayals of the bodies of social actors and symbolic bodies? Even character and emotion were portrayed as physically embodied. We’ll analyze classical sculpture, painting, and other arts, supported by readings from studies in the history of art, critical approaches to conceptions of the human form, ancient medical texts, and Greek and Roman poetry.

  Is there a difference between a tour and a journey? Or between a hike and a pilgrimage? Many people believe so, and that the difference lies in the traveler’s openness to internal transformations. Spain has long been a land of travelers that, in more recent times, has also become a magnet for visitors from around world. Why has it inspired so many people go “on the move”? In this class, we will explore this rich history of comings and goings, and the ways filmmakers and writers have portrayed the mysteries of travel over time, with an eye toward helping our internal sojourner challenge the often facile “truths” of its neighbor the tourist. Taught in English (HISP credit available if written work done in Spanish).

  In this course, students will engage critically with the Japanese culture. Through animation films directed by Miyazaki Hayao, Kon Satoshi, and others, and modern Japanese short stories, we will examine the ideas of "basic" and perhaps "typical" Japanese cultural aspects and elements, as defined in Roger J. Davies and Osamu Ikeno's The Japanese Mind: Understanding Contemporary Japanese Culture. Students are expected to think about these aspects and elements, watching animation films and reading short stories. Most importantly, however, students are required to analyze the Japanese works from a critical perspective and to write "argumentative essays" on them. By close-reading the texts (both films and literary works), students will develop sensitivities toward what flows underneath cultural representations The coursework includes multiple drafts of term papers.

  We live in a bordered world. While some national borders may seem invisible, allowing for easy crossing, others are heavily guarded-stern markers of state sovereignty and protectionism. In this course we will examine the broad political and cultural implications of borders, from the 20th century into the present. Our main focus will be on the lived experience of-and on-the border, with special attention given to transnational travel, migration (increasingly climate related), exile, and the unique cultures that emerge in borderlands. Aside from reading essential texts within the field of Border Studies, we will explore several novels, short stories and films from different parts of the world-from the Berlin Wall to the US-Mexico Border

  The Godfather and The Godfather Part II films are narrative masterpieces that provide many insights into the interplay of character and culture in decision-making in high-stakes situations outside the law. We will interpret the films as illustrations of strategic interaction in stylized mafia settings. We will focus on the psychology of motivations: rationality, interest, emotion, justice, and the mafia’s code of honor (vendetta, omertà, and gender norms). And we will discuss narrative techniques and the relationship between art and life (fiction and reality).
