PL 310 - Collective Action and Identity PoliticsCredits: 4
Social change is a fundamental political process around the world. Yet there is no one recipe for the process by which people cross individual and community boundaries to collaborate for shared goals. What is community mobilization? Why does it happen, what does it look like, who participates, and to what end? This course examines the underlying tenets of collective action to understand the context in which such action develops and plays out. People’s individual and collective identities are considered to better understand how a sense of self can serve as an intangible resource in advocating for political, economic, and cultural rights.
