Chronologically, it will cover both the original Chicago School (interwar years) and the Second Chicago School (early postwar period). Readings: Because of the open-endedness of the syllabus, no books will be on order at the bookstore. Students are expected to procure their own copies of books they wish to own. A number of books (dozens) will be on reserve at the Social Science Reference Library (8th floor of Sewell Social Science Building). In addition, many selections will be available as pdf files at Learn@UW. For future reference, this syllabus will also be available at Learn@UW. Grading Format: Students’ grades for this course will be based on two different requirements, each of which will contribute 50% to the final grade. First, students will be evaluated on a final paper. Second, they will be graded on their class attendance and participation. More on each of these below. Final Paper: One week after the final class meeting of the semester (at 5 p.m. that day), a final paper will be due.

    Center for Studies in Demography and Ecology Some Evolving Thoughts on Leo F. Schnore as a Social Scientist by Avery M. Guest University of Washington UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON CSDE Working Paper No. 99-09 SOME EVOLVING THOUGHTS ON LEO F. SCHNORE AS A SOCIAL SCIENTIST Avery M. Guest Department of Sociology Box 353340 University of Washington Seattle, WA 98115 Draft: 04/09/99 I first encountered Leo on an autumn day in 1966 when, during my second graduate term, I was taking a course from him on Urbanism and Urbanization. Leo had actually missed the first few weeks of the course, and his friend Eric Lampard had ably filled in with a discussion of the long-term history of urbanization. Leo was a galvanizing figure in my life. Until that point, I did not see much future for myself as a sociologist. I had enjoyed sociology as a discipline at Oberlin College in Ohio, but what bothered me about it was the seeming abstractness of the subject matter. As presented to me by other faculty, there were many interesting concepts and ideas, but I failed to become engrossed in them because I could not determine their validity. At the time, I was contemplating a return to newspaper reporting which I greatly enjoyed because of its investigative quality, although I saw little of the conceptual overview that I appreciated from sociology. Leo brought it all together. He had a lot of stimulating, clear ideas about what was happening to cities in the United States. And he seemed wedded strongly to the position that ideas were largely accepted on the basis of empirical support.

McDonald As the epigraph for his enormously influential 1949 book Social Theorv and Social Structure Robert K. Merton selected the now well known opinion of Alfred North Whitehead that Ita science which hesitates to forget its founders is lost.tt And both history and sociology have been struggling with the implications of that statement ever since. On the one hand, it was the belief that it was possible to forget one's ttfounderswthat galvanized the social scientists (including historians) of Mertonfs generation to reinvent their disciplines. But on the other hand, it was the hubris of that view that ultimately undermined the disciplinary authority that they set out to construct, for in the end neither their propositions about epistemology or society could escape from "history."2 Social and ideological conflict in American society undermined the correspondence between theories of consensus and latent functions and the Itrealitynthey sought to explain; the belief in a single, scientific, transhistorical road to cumulative knowledge was assaulted by theories of paradigms and incommensurability; marxist theory breached the walls of both idealism and the ideology of scientific neutrality only to be overrun, in its turn, by the hordes of the ttpoststt:post-positivism, post-modernism, post-marxism, post-structuralism, and others too numerous to mention.

  • URBANISM and URBANIZATION Course Homepage
    Winter 2010 Charles Hirschman Sociology 430 248 Savery TTH: 3:00-4:20 telephone: 3-5035 URBANISM AND URBANIZATION Course Homepage: http://faculty.washington.edu/charles/430_2010/ This course is a primer on origins and historical development of cities from the perspective of human ecology. One of the classical theoretical orientations in sociology, human ecology originated with Robert Park and the Chicago school of sociology. Human ecology has roots in natural ecology and links to several disciplines including geography, sociology, and anthropology. Within the discipline of sociology, human ecology is closely aligned with demography and the study of urbanization and migration. The content of this course is mostly classical writings from earlier times and selected contemporary empirical studies. There are three requirements for this course. The first is to write a brief one paragraph synopsis of one of the weekly readings and to post one or more questions for our class discussion. Your comments will be posted on the course Bulletin Board (more about this shortly). The second requirement is to write a 5 to 7 page (less than 2,000 words) research proposal. The research proposal should contain a clear statement of an empirical question and its significance (1 page), a review of the relevant of theoretical and empirical literature (3-4 pages), and a description of the source and measurement of the key variables. The third requirement are mid term and final exams. The exams will be take-home essay exams. There will be two take-home examinations. The midterm exam will be distributed on February 4 and is due on February 9.

  • Feminist Sociology.Pdf
    Feminist Sociology i The British Sociological Association is publishing a series of books to review the state of the discipline at the beginning of the millenium. New Horizons in Sociology also seeks to locate the contribution of British scholarship to the wider development of sociology. Sociology is taught in all the major institutions of higher education in the United Kingdom as well as throughout North America and the Europe of the former western bloc. Sociology is now establishing itself in the former eastern bloc. But it was only in the second half of the twentieth century that sociology moved from the fringes of UK academic life into the mainstream. British sociolo- gy has also provided a home for movements that have renewed and chal- lenged the discipline; the revival of academic Marxism, the renaissance in feminist theory, the rise of cultural studies, for example. Some of these developments have become sub-disciplines whilst yet others have chal- lenged the very basis of the sociological enterprise. Each has left their mark. Now therefore is a good time both to take stock and to scan the horizon, looking back and looking forward.

  • Interviews Referencing Rupert B. Vance PAA President in 1951-52
    DEMOGRAPHIC DESTINIES Interviews with Presidents of the Population Association of America Interviews Referencing Rupert B. Vance PAA President in 1951-52 This series of interviews with Past PAA Presidents was initiated by Anders Lunde (PAA Historian, 1973 to 1982) And continued by Jean van der Tak (PAA Historian, 1982 to 1994) And then by John R. Weeks (PAA Historian, 1994 to present) With the collaboration of the following members of the PAA History Committee: David Heer (2004 to 2007), Paul Demeny (2004 to 2012), Dennis Hodgson (2004 to present), Deborah McFarlane (2004 to 2018), Karen Hardee (2010 to present), Emily Merchant (2016 to present), and Win Brown (2018 to present) RUPERT B. VANCE We do not have an interview with Rupert Vance, who was the 15th PAA President (1951-52). However, as Andy Lunde and Jean van der Tak (VDT) were interviewing other past presidents, they regularly asked questions about those early presidents whom they had been unable to interview. Below are the excerpted comments about Rupert Vance. CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Rupert Bayless Vance was born in 1899 in Plummerville, Arkansas. He contracted polio as a child, which decreased his physical mobility. He received his A.B degree from Henderson-Brown College in Arkansas, his master's degree in economics from Vanderbilt University and was awarded his Ph.D. from the University of Carolina, Chapel Hill, in 1928.

    William Lavely Winter 2005 106G Savery Hall 543-6805 M-W: 3:30-5:20 Email: [email protected] Savery 146 Office Hours: F 10:30-12:00 Sociology 513 Demography and Ecology Syllabus Course web site http://depts.washington.edu/soc513/ The website contains a course syllabus, a list of suggested paper topics, a list of recommended books for review, links to course readings, and other information. To enter part of the site you will need a login ID and password which will be announced in class. Objectives This course is a graduate level introduction to the fields of social demography and human ecology with a survey of major issues, theories, and research exemplars. Sociology graduate students who plan to take the certification examination in demography and ecology should also consider taking three additional courses: Soc 430 (Urbanism and Urbanization), Soc 431 (Fertility and Mortality), and Soc 433 (Research Methods in Demography). There are also population-related courses offered in Geography, Anthropology and Economics. The aim of this survey course is to help you acquire a basic "literacy" of the leading ideas and research directions in the field of population studies. A survey course, no matter how intensive, can cover only a small fraction of important topics in a field. This course concentrates on the traditional core subjects of population growth, fertility, mortality, migration, and urbanization. Demographic methods and measures are only covered to the extent necessary to understand substantive issues. The course will be a mix of lectures and discussion. In order to fully participate in the discussion, you will need to keep up-to-date with the readings.
