THE MINOR IN POLITICAL ECONOMY

A division of labor exists in the social sciences among the fields of history, political science, economics, sociology and anthropology. While there are many benefits to this professional specialization, they have come at the cost of the fragmentation of our knowledge about society. The interdepartmental minor in political economy aims to reunite these fragments into a coherent whole. It brings together a set of mutually complementary viewpoints from a variety of courses, all relating to the global nature and development of contemporary industrial and postindustrial society.

Students interested in pursuing this minor should note the prerequisites or recommended introductory-level courses in the respective participating departments. Please see one of the advisers.
