This course explores the transformation of family life in the modern world through a global lens. Specific topics we will cover include dating and mate selection, love and romance, cohabitation, marriage, divorce, and parenting. We will examine how broader social forces such as globalization, technological development, and race/class/gender inequalities have affected intimate relationships. Some of the questions we will discuss include: How are seemingly personal matters such as love and sex shaped by global economics and politics? What are some of the new desires, pleasures, and emotions that have emerged in the 21st century and through what processes are they circulated as commodities across cultural and geographical borders? This course explores family formation both within and outside the U.S. and encourages students to consider themselves part of a complex and fast-changing global environment.

Loss and grief, though painful, are a universal part of human experience and yet also profoundly unique. Service professionals across areas of practice will inevitably encounter people who are experiencing grief in reaction to some type of loss whether it is a relationship, an ability, a community, a culture, and/or the sense of a just world. This course will explore these varied forms of loss and the many ways individuals, families and communities grieve those losses. We will discuss resilience as nurtured and sustained through connection and examine the enormous positive societal impact those who are grieving have made and continue to make in our community, in our nation, and across the globe.
