POLSC 348 - Participatory Democracy and Community Organizing
Credits: 4
A study of how citizens can address community problems through organized, collective action. We begin by examining the tradition of participatory democracy and considering how this tradition can be sustained. We then consider how participatory democracy guides the work of community organizing. Ultimately, we connect theory and practice by contributing to local collective action efforts. Students will participate in projects that address specific local level challenges.
Prerequisite: Permission of the instructor.
Distribution Requirements: CL, SB.
