Diversity in Cities POL 463 (4)

Explores diversity in cities. It examines how different social and identity markers (ethnicity, religion, race, gender, class, sexuality, handicap or language) shape cities and how diversity is in turn shaped by public policies. The primary focus is Canada but we also look at these issues outside Canada. Prerequisite: Eight upper division units in political science or permission of the department. Students who have taken Selected Topics course POL 458 with the topic "Canadian DiverCities" may not take this course for further credit.
