This course provides an introduction to the geographies of globalization. Four geographical dimensions of globalization will be studied: economic geographies, geopolitics, socio-cultural geographies and the impact of globalization on the biophysical environment. The goal in this course is to help students become familiar with the debates surrounding globalization, the geographical changes and consequences that are associated with the term and the theoretical constructs that have been employed to explain the geographies of globalization. Case studies from around the world will be used to develop an appreciation of global geographical changes. Three lecture hours per week. Not open to students who have received credit for GGR245.
