SOC 009 - (BH) Youth, Crisis, and American Culture

Semester Hours: 3
Periodically
This course explores the period in human development we call “youth.” The “Beat Generation,” “Love Generation,” “Me Generation,” “Generation X”: the concept of youth differs depending on social, economic, and political contexts. Accordingly, this course offers an understanding of youth that is grounded in historical development, social structure and a changing youth culture (e.g., music, dress, work and leisure). The course examines the prevailing attitudes and conditions confronting youth today, with an eye towards future developments.
