COURSE SYLLABUS AND PROGRAM

 

This course introduces basic concepts, theories, approaches, dynamics and processes in the field of urban sociology. The aim of this course is to cover urban sociological dynamics, major theoretical debates over space and urban society, social classes, organizations, networks and other issues in cities. Moreover, it intends to introduce different sociological discussions in different contexts and scales (local to global). The latter part of the course examines the case of Ankara—the social and spatial organization of its neighborhoods.
