SOCY-335 Birth and Death (3) This course examines the sociological dimensions of human “entry and exit.” It focuses on how society supports, controls, and constrains our arrival into and departure from the social world. The social, organizational, and cultural dimensions of birth and death are considered in terms in rites of passage, bureaucratization, social movements, and cultural differences, in historical and contemporary contexts.
