Another title: Sociology of Women, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).
A comparative analysis of women’s roles in past and present with selected cross-cultural data. Assessment of the present situation. Subjective factors: socialization of women into “women’s” roles, internalization of role expectations by women, perpetuation of stereotypes and symbolic expression of differential worth of men and women. Objective factors: the legal situation, women on the labor market, the “sex revolution”, and the women’s liberation movement. Prerequisite: Soc. 101* 2 lectures, I discussion, Fall term.
