Comments
Social transformations reflect interdependent processes which take place in various world regions simultaneously. Due to their focus on national societies, social scientists have hitherto underestimated these interdependencies. This has led scholars to develop new approaches able to analyze global, transnational and transregional entanglements. In its first part, this course offers a comparative overview of these new perspectives highlighting their analytical promises and deficits. The second part is dedicated to studying global development tendencies in order to illustrate interdependencies between different regions. close
