View Academic Calendar
 

An exploration of the rich diversity of cultures and societies of Contemporary Europe. Critical reading of recent ethnography will be used to examine themes such as the formation of national identities, ethnicity and migration, rural life and traditionalism, family and kinship, popular religion, and urban development. The European Union is analyzed as a potential transformation of Europe into a new system of European government that could supersede the nation-state.
