| This
course is designed as an introduction to foundational social theory
with a specific orientation toward urban studies. We will explore
the early identification of the urban phenomenon with the emergence
of modernity, pertinent theoretical and practical responses to the
industrial city, the citys role in capitalist accumulation and
social conflict, the problem of sustaining urban vitality and community,
and new functions of culture and representation in modern cities.
