| Description |
This team-taught seminar is designed as a capstone course for AMS concentrators and offers an opportunity to work at a more sophisticated and advanced level. Taking New Jersey as our object of study, we will reflect on the ways various residents (and visitors) have constructed worlds--spatial worlds as well as worlds of meaning--in and on this particular ground. We will examine both how we live today and the multiple ways that "how we live today" must be situated within longer histories, including such topics as property rights, suburbanization, zoning, transportation, home and homelessness, immigration, environment and community. |
