GEOS324: Economy, Place and Culture

Geographical explorations of the interplay between culture and economy, focusing on globalisation and its impact on people in local situations. Frameworks for thinking about cultural and economic aspects of globalisation, place and human identity are contrasted and developed. Topics include case studies of: food production and consumption; forms of popular culture such as music; the changing nature of work; the rise of the so-called new middle class in industrialised countries; and contrasting meanings given to industrial change by corporations and local communities.
