Traditionally the sociology of education has focused on the social organization of schooling and social mobility. This course casts a wider net and explores the ways in which the study of schooling is changing in light of the global expansion of education and issues of social justice. This course will also cover traditional (e.g., regression analysis) and newly emerging methodologies (e.g., network analysis) for addressing sociology of education research questions. Materials will be drawn from recent empirical and theoretical literature on education and socialization in developing and industrialized countries. ER -
