HS 233F — Social Policy for Shared Societies

Meets for one-half semester and yields half-course credit.

Examines how labor mobility, forced migration, and refugee flows have all contributed to societies that are decreasingly homogenous. Multi ethnic, cultural and religious states are now more the rule than the exception. Accommodating, managing and appreciating such diversity in social programming has proved to be one of the major challenges that governments and societies face today. This course looks at how governments and others can develop policies and programs in e.g. development, health, the environment, business and education so that such policies can prevent societal conflicts, and assist the creation of shared rather than conflicted societies. Usually offered every year.
