DESCRIPTION
This course will introduce the impact of globalization on Dublin. Before exploring the city chronologically, students will examine ancient Ireland's global influence, then re-trace the Viking City through to its current form, which is characterized by urban sprawl, multiculturalism, and its connection to Europe and the global economy; contextualize and develop informed interpretations of their personal experiences in Dublin; and develop a deeper understanding of Irish history, politics, and society.
