Using cutting-edge research into social media and existing work on community heritage projects, this course
will challenge its students to think through what digital citizenship means today. It comprises two parts: the first
explores theoretical discussions about social media and participatory culture. The second uses contemporary
digital tools to create real digital projects which aim to overcome barriers to inclusion, such as language,
inequality, (dis)ability, gender, location and connectivity. It will measure its success both by analyzing the
effectiveness of the design, as well as by measuring online impact of the real projects. By integrating
theoretical and practical research, the course aims to empower its students to think about media and
citizenship in the face of future struggles, and how digital technologies might help to promote genuine social
engagement.
Schedule: 6 pm – 10 pm

the digital age

University of Oregon, he has held faculty appointments in the

MILLERSVILLE UNIVERSITY
Tracing the modern development of human rights as a problem and a question, this course investigates how
the values, norms, and commitments of being a citizen-subject in today’s world are being challenged by an
emergent global ethic based on an idealization of humans coexisting beyond borders.
The central problem this course examines concerns the process of normative ethicopolitical self-
understanding that connects the values of citizens to non-citizens, foreigners, word travelers, migrants,
refugees, and others.
Following an intersectional analysis that leads to possibilities of a transformed future world where standards of
justice and the good life become diverse, globally inclusive practices, this course takes seriously the emergent
horizon of international possibilities for social engagement, social change, and future global identity.

In this course, students will be introduced to the conceptual knowledge of Corporate Social Responsibility
(CSR) as well as how to develop socially responsible strategies. In recent years, scholars and practitioners
have criticized corporate motives and tactics for CSR and research provides evidence that CSR strategies
developed solely for publicity can backfire in this day and age.
This course will address this social engagement gap of corporate responsibility in three short modules:
• Introduction of CSR: its history and conceptualization followed by two days of readings and discussions on
CSR practices globally.
• Three days will be spent on covering CSR strategies by examining case studies.
• Last two days will cover ethics in CSR, challenges and opportunities for professionals.

Classical political economy sought to conceptualize the linkages of political power to accumulated material
wealth. In so doing, it helped establish important theoretical foundations for the scientific understanding of
social behavior. Many influential sociologists, both classical and contemporary, developed their ideas while
engaged in dialogue with political economy. The purpose of this seminar is to examine the rise of political
economy and to trace its pervasive influence upon sociological. In so doing, we will explore some
contemporary applications of political economy in sociological research within the critical tradition.
In summary, the objectives of this course include: (1) gaining general knowledge about the roots of modern
social science; (2) obtain a working familiarity with scientific paradigms dedicated to critical and policy
analysis; and (3) enhancing professional note-taking, presentation, and writing skills.
