Course Description
Welcome to Social Theory!

We each aim to understand the world around us, whether in an intentional and systematic
fashion or just implicitly each time we act. Social theories aim to bring these conceptions
together, which oftentimes requires reconciling contradictions from varying perspectives and
contexts.

During the course we will engage with lofty questions like:

● What keeps society together?

● How are social identities defined and transformed?
● How does social change happen?

And each week, we will explicitly draw connections between our own life and the readings of the
course. While many of the texts we read may be a century old, our purpose will be to explore
their significance for our own lives rather than just reading them for their own sake. With this in
mind, a central focus of this course will be you, whether that means by sharing in class or via
discussion posts.

1
One final logistical note - all texts are available on the Canvas site - you will not need to
purchase a textbook.

This semester will be what we make of it. The instruction team looks forward to meeting you!

Required Materials
All materials will be available digitally via the Canvas Course Site. There are no required
textbooks to purchase.

Assignments
This course has on average 80 pages of reading each week. Some weeks have audios or
videos and a reduced reading load.

You have randomly been placed into groups which you will work with throughout the semester
both online and in the classroom. On Mondays you will have 30 minutes to work with your
group, whether that is discussing the week's materials or planning the Group Presentation and
Final Paper. Any questions that your peers are unable to answer can be brought up in class,
during office hours, or communicated to the teaching team via email.

Reflections: Each week you will write a 400 word reflection on the week's materials in your
group's discussion forum. These are open-ended and intended for you to grapple with what you
found most interesting or difficult, and to explore how engaging with the materials reshaped how
you understand the world around you. You can choose whether you'd like to write one cohesive
text, or use headers to distinguish different sections that total up to the word count. You are
required to include direct quotations from the materials. (56% of your overall grade, each of the
14 weeks with reflections is 4% of your overall grade). Due Sundays at 11:59pm.

Reactions: Each week you will also post 100 word responses in reaction to at least 2 peers in
the Discussion Forum. (14% of your overall grade, each of the 14 weeks with reflections is 1%
of your overall grade). Due Tuesdays at 11:59pm.

Final Paper: In your groups of 4, you will each select a different theorist to focus on. You will
individually write a 1,000 word paper exploring the theorist's ideas and the relation to the
theorists your peers selected. Subsequently, you will jointly produce a single, one page
introductory page describing your process and summarizing the key points of each of your
peers' three page paper. You are highly encouraged to come to office hours to discuss your
ideas, and review drafts. Due December 18th, at 11:59pm (30% of your grade)

circumstances that impact your ability to meet deadlines or participate in class activities, you are
responsible for alerting me as soon as possible.

Course Outline & Schedule

Week Description

Week 1: We will discuss your hopes for the course and review the course structure and
Welcome assignments. You'll walk away with a clear understanding of the plan for the
semester. You are expected to complete the upcoming week's reading by
Sunday evening in order to post your discussion posts.

Week 2: Before we dive into reading primary social theory texts, we will engage with
What is Social the meta question, what is this all about?
Theory?

Week 3: This week's readings aim to contextualize theory, showing the historical
History of context and sequence of social theories. The main point being that theory is
Social not developed in a vacuum, but shaped by societal forces just like everything
Thought else. With this in mind, the readings for each week in this course are, for the
most part, ordered chronologically.

Week 4: Marx is a key figure in progressive thought and politics. This week gives you
Karl Marx the opportunity to read his writing first hand and hear how contemporary
writers describe his influence.

Week 5: Addams wrote on a range of topics including housing, urbanism, local

Jane Addams government, and feminism. She participated in the women's suffrage
movement, which culminated in the passing of the 19th Amendment in 1920.

3
Week 6: In most theory courses and textbooks, Durkheim is one of the core 3 theorists,
Émile along with Marx and Weber. He wrote on a range of topics including
Durkheim solidarity, suicide, and methods.

Week 7: Weber wrote about a range of topics including the relationship between
Max Weber religion and capitalism, as well as rationalization, and bureaucracy.

Week 8: Du Bois was a civil rights leader and scholar. He was the first African
W.E.B. Du American to earn a doctorate degree. Scholars today are increasingly
Bois recognizing the caliber of Du Bois work and how the racism of the era left it
marginalized.

Week 9: Foucault wrote about power across a range of settings from the hospital to the
Michel prison. Power understood as the invisible forces which structure society
Foucault

Week 10: Bourdieu wrote about a range of topics, from art to academia. Throughout his
Pierre writing two central topics are the fields and habitus. Field refers to the arena
Bourdieu in which one operates given a set of roles and rules. Habitus to the set of
practices and modes of being that one develops and solidifies over time.

Week 11: Robinson is a key figure in the aim to incorporate a racial lens into Marxism,
Cedric J. which traditionally advocates class as the predominant social force.
Robinson

Week 12: We will not meet in person this week. In lieu of meeting please select two
Personal documentaries from this list to watch and write about in your check in and
Exploration discussion posts.

Week 13: This week builds on last week, integrating race and gender. A key concept
Patricia Hill here is intersectionality, which was coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw to refer to
Collins multiple, and overlapping forms of oppression.

Week 14: This week’s readings decentralized the European experience in the
Postcolonial construction of knowledge. Similar to recent weeks that have argued for
Theory infusing race and gender perspectives into social theory, this week
emphasizes the importance of incorporating geography and the legacy of
colonialism.

Week 15: Unger has written widely, on topics including architecture, physics,
Roberto psychology, and economics. Here he describes the role of theory, which I
Mangabeira hope is a stimulating invitation to reflect upon the semester’s readings and
Unger how they contribute to your understanding of the social world beyond this
classroom.

Course Policies and Support
Teaching and Learning
The following two links contain university policies that pertain to you and your instructor:

● Instructor Responsibilities
● Student Responsibilities

Course Access
Access to course materials in Canvas may cease after the term ends. If you wish to archive
materials for your personal records or portfolio you should do so as you progress through the
course. As a general rule, you should always save local copies of course-related work. To avoid
disasters, you should also save important files to external media or cloud storage.

Name/Pronouns
I will do my best to address you by a name or gender pronoun that you have identified. Please
advise me early in the semester so that I may make appropriate changes to my records.

Workload
For undergraduate courses, one credit is defined as equivalent to an average of three hours of
learning effort per week (over a full semester) necessary for an average student to achieve an
average grade in the course. For example, a student taking a three-credit course that meets for
three hours a week should expect to spend an additional six hours a week on coursework
outside the classroom.

Academic Integrity & Misconduct

Academic misconduct is a violation of the UMN Student Conduct Code and is unacceptable. I
expect you to submit your own original work and participate in the course with integrity and high
standards of academic honesty. When appropriate, cite original sources, following the style rules
of our discipline. Plagiarism or cheating in any form may result in failure of the assignment or the
entire course, and may include harsher sanctions.

Plagiarism
Plagiarism occurs when students turn in work that is not their own. According to the Office of
Student Conduct and Academic Integrity, when you “present the ideas, words, and work of
someone else as your own, you have plagiarized. Any information, data, or expressions coming

6
from someone else or another source must be properly cited by you. If there is any doubt in
your mind regarding what needs to be cited, it is your responsibility to seek clarification from the
instructor.” More information on plagiarism is available at the Avoiding Scholastic Dishonesty
website.

Absence for Religious Observance

The University of Minnesota permits absences from class for participation in religious
observances. Students who plan to miss class must:
1. Inform instructors of anticipated absences at the beginning of the semester;
2. Meet with instructors to reschedule any missed labs or examinations; and
3. Obtain class notes from other students.

Instructors are required to assist students in obtaining course materials and assignments
distributed during class sessions and to arrange for taking missed examinations. Since we are
working with “week” windows for engagement with the materials, for the most part
accommodations may not be necessary, but if they are, please do not hesitate to ask about
accommodations at least a week ahead of time. Accommodations after the fact will not be
made.

Statement on FERPA (Family Education Rights and Privacy Act)

In this class, our use of technology will sometimes make students' names and U of M Internet
IDs visible within the course website, but only to other students in the same class. Since we are
using a secure, password-protected course website, this will not increase the risk of identity
theft or spamming for anyone in the class. If you have concerns about the visibility of your
Internet ID, please contact me for further information.

Academic Services and Resources at UMN

● Academic Advising Center
● Disability Resource Center
● CLA Career Services
● Boynton Mental Health Clinic
● Student Writing Support

Student Conduct Code

The University seeks an environment that promotes academic achievement and integrity, that is
protective of free inquiry, and that serves the educational mission of the University. Similarly, the
University seeks a community that is free from violence, threats, and intimidation; that is
respectful of the rights, opportunities, and welfare of students, faculty, staff, and guests of the
University; and that does not threaten the physical or mental health or safety of members of the
University community.

As a student at the University you are expected to adhere to the Board of Regents Policy:
Student Conduct Code. To review the Student Conduct Code, please see:
https://regents.umn.edu/sites/regents.umn.edu/files/2019-09/policy_student_conduct_code.pdf

Note that the conduct code specifically addresses disruptive classroom conduct, which means
"engaging in behavior that substantially or repeatedly interrupts either the instructor's ability to
teach and/or a student’s ability to learn.” The classroom extends to any setting where a student
is engaged in work toward academic credit or satisfaction of program-based requirements or
related activities.

Use of Personal Electronic Devices in the Classroom

Using personal electronic devices in the classroom setting can hinder instruction and learning,
not only for the student using the device but also for other students in the class. To this end, the
University establishes the right of each instructor to determine if and how personal electronic
devices are allowed to be used in the classroom. For complete information, please reference:
https://policy.umn.edu/education/studentresp.

Scholastic Dishonesty
You are expected to do your own academic work and cite sources as necessary. Failing to do so
is scholastic dishonesty. Scholastic dishonesty means plagiarizing; cheating on assignments or
examinations; engaging in unauthorized collaboration on academic work; taking, acquiring, or
using test materials without faculty permission; submitting false or incomplete records of
academic achievement; acting alone or in cooperation with another to falsify records or to obtain
dishonestly grades, honors, awards, or professional endorsement; altering, forging, or misusing
a University academic record; or fabricating or falsifying data, research procedures, or data
analysis. (Student Conduct Code:
https://regents.umn.edu/sites/regents.umn.edu/files/2019-09/policy_student_conduct_code.pdf)
If it is determined that a student has cheated, the student may be given an "F" or an "N" for the

8
course, and may face additional sanctions from the University. For additional information, please
see: https://policy.umn.edu/education/instructorresp.

The Office for Community Standards has compiled a useful list of Frequently Asked Questions
pertaining to scholastic dishonesty:
https://communitystandards.umn.edu/avoid-violations/avoiding-scholastic-dishonesty. If you
have additional questions, please clarify with your instructor for the course. Your instructor can
respond to your specific questions regarding what would constitute scholastic dishonesty in the
context of a particular class, e.g., whether collaboration on assignments is permitted,
requirements and methods for citing sources, if electronic aids are permitted or prohibited during
an exam.

Makeup Work for Legitimate Absences

Students will not be penalized for absence during the semester due to unavoidable or legitimate
circumstances. Such circumstances include verified illness, participation in intercollegiate
athletic events, subpoenas, jury duty, military service, bereavement, and religious observances.
Such circumstances do not include voting in local, state, or national elections. For complete
information, please see: https://policy.umn.edu/education/makeupwork.

Appropriate Student Use of Class Notes and Course Materials

Taking notes is a means of recording information but more importantly of personally absorbing
and integrating the educational experience. However, broadly disseminating class notes beyond
the classroom community or accepting compensation for taking and distributing classroom
notes undermines instructor interests in their intellectual work product while not substantially
furthering instructor and student interests in effective learning. Such actions violate shared
norms and standards of the academic community. For additional information, please see:
https://policy.umn.edu/education/studentresp.

Equity, Diversity, Equal Opportunity, and Affirmative Action

The University provides equal access to and opportunity in its programs and facilities, without
regard to race, color, creed, religion, national origin, gender, age, marital status, disability, public
assistance status, membership or activity in a local commission created for the purpose of
dealing with discrimination, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender
expression. For more information, please consult Board of Regents Policy:
https://regents.umn.edu/sites/regents.umn.edu/files/2019-09/policy_equity_diversity_equal_opp
ortunity_and_affirmative_action.pdf.

Academic Freedom and Responsibility:
Academic freedom is a cornerstone of the University. Within the scope and content of the
course as defined by the instructor, it includes the freedom to discuss relevant matters in the
classroom. Along with this freedom comes responsibility. Students are encouraged to develop
the capacity for critical judgment and to engage in a sustained and independent search for truth.
Students are free to take reasoned exception to the views offered in any course of study and to
reserve judgment about matters of opinion, but they are responsible for learning the content of
any course of study for which they are enrolled.*

Reports of concerns about academic freedom are taken seriously, and there are individuals and
offices available for help. Contact the instructor (MIchael Soto), the Department Chair (Kathleen
Hull), your adviser, the associate dean of the college (Ascan Koerner), or the Vice Provost for
Faculty and Academic Affairs (Rebecca Ropers) in the Office of the Provost.

on Rights and Freedoms of Students".

COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS POLICIES

GRADES: University academic achievement is graded under two systems: A-F (with pluses
and minuses) and S-N. Choice of grading system and course level (1xxx/3xxx/4xxx) is indicated
on the registration website; changes in grade scale may not be made after the second week of
the semester. Some courses may be taken under only one system; limitations are identified in
the course listings. The Department of Sociology requires A-F registration in courses required
for the major/minor. University regulations prescribe the grades that will be reported on your
transcript.

A Represents achievement that is outstanding relative to the level necessary to meet

course requirements (4.00 grade points)
A- 3.67 grade points
B+ 3.33 grade points
B Achievement significantly above the level necessary to meet course requirements
(3.00 grade points)
B- 2.67 grade points
C+ 2.33 grade points
C Achievement that meets the basic course requirements in every respect (2.00 grade
points)
C- 1.67 grade points
D+ 1.33 grade points
D Achievement worthy of credit even though it fails to meet fully the course requirements
(1.00 grade point)

10
 F Performance that fails to meet the basic course requirements (0 grade points)
S Represents achievement that is satisfactory, which is equivalent to a C- or better.
N No credit. Its use is now restricted to students not earning an S on the S-N grade base
I Incomplete, a temporary symbol assigned when the instructor has a "reasonable
expectation" that you 1) can successfully complete unfinished work on your own no
later than one year from the last day of classes and 2) believes that legitimate reasons
exist to justify extending the deadline for course completion. The instructor may set
date conditions for make-up work. If a course is not completed as prescribed or not
made up as agreed within the year, the I will lapse to an F if registered on the A-F
grade base or an N if registered on the S-N grade base.
W Official withdrawal from a course after the end of the second week of the semester.
You must file a course cancellation request before the end of the sixth week of the
semester to ensure that the W, rather than the F, will be formerly entered on your
record.

FINAL EXAMINATIONS (see schedule on the Calendar web site at

onestop.umn.edu/calendar/final-exam-times): You are required to take final examinations at the
scheduled times. Under certain circumstances, however, you may request final examination
schedule adjustment in your college office. Instructors are obligated to schedule make-up
examinations within the final examination period for students who have three final examinations
within a 16-hour period. Instructors also are encouraged to reschedule examinations for
students with religious objections to taking an examination on a given day. You must submit
your request for an adjustment in your schedule at least two weeks before the examination
period begins. For assistance in resolving conflicts, call the CLA Student Information Office at
625-2020. If you miss a final, an F or N is recorded. You must obtain the instructor's permission
to make up the examination. Final examinations may be rescheduled by the instructor only
through the official procedure for that purpose (as noted on the above web page). Final
examinations may not be scheduled for the last day of class or earlier or for Study Day. If an
examination is rescheduled at the instructor's request, and you have an examination conflict
because of it, you are entitled to be given the final examination at an alternative time within the
regularly scheduled examination period for that semester.

CLASS ATTENDANCE: As a student, you are responsible for attending class and for
ascertaining the particular attendance requirements for each class or department. You should
also learn each instructor's policies concerning make-up of work for absences. Instructors and
students may consult the CLA Classroom, Grading, and Examination Procedures Handbook for
more information on these policies (https://policy.umn.edu/education/makeupwork).

COURSE PERFORMANCE AND GRADING: Instructors establish ground rules for their
courses in conformity with their department policies and are expected to explain them at the first
course meeting. This includes announcement of office hours and location, the kind of help to be
expected from the instructor and teaching assistants, and tutorial services, if available. The
instructor also describes the general nature of the course, the work expected, dates for

11
examinations and paper submissions, and expectations for classroom participation and
attendance. Instructors determine the standards for grading in their classes and will describe
expectations, methods of evaluation, and factors that enter into grade determination. The
special conditions under which an incomplete (I) might be awarded also should be established.
The college does not permit you to submit extra work to raise your grade unless all students in
the class are afforded the same opportunity.

CLASSROOM BEHAVIOR: You are entitled to a good learning environment in the classroom.
Students whose behavior is disruptive either to the instructor or to other students will be asked
to leave (the policies regarding student conduct are outlined on-line at
https://communitystandards.umn.edu/know-code/consequences

ELECTRONIC DEVICES: University instructors may restrict or prohibit the use of personal
electronic devices in his or her classroom, lab, or any other instructional setting. For the
complete policy, visit: http://policy.umn.edu/education/studentresp

SCHOLASTIC CONDUCT: The University Student Conduct Code defines scholastic

dishonesty as follows:
Scholastic Dishonesty means plagiarizing; cheating on assignments or examinations; engaging
in unauthorized collaboration on academic work; taking, acquiring, or using test materials
without faculty permission; submitting false or incomplete records of academic achievement;
acting alone or in cooperation with another to falsify records or to obtain dishonestly grades,
honors, awards, or professional endorsement; altering, forging, or misusing a University
academic record; or fabricating or falsifying data, research procedures, or data analysis.
Students cannot evade (intentionally or unintentionally) a grade sanction by withdrawing
from a course before or after the misconduct charge is reported. This also applies to late
withdrawals, including discretionary late cancellation (also known as the "one-time-only
drop"). For the complete policy, visit:
http://regents.umn.edu/sites/default/files/policies/Student_Conduct_Code.pdf
STUDENT MENTAL HEALTH AND STRESS MANAGEMENT: As a student you may
experience a range of issues that can cause barriers to learning, such as strained relationships,
increased anxiety, alcohol/drug problems, feeling down, difficulty concentrating and/or lack of
motivation. These mental health concerns or stressful events may lead to diminished academic
performance or reduce a student's ability to participate in daily activities. University of Minnesota
services are available to assist you with addressing these and other concerns you may be
experiencing. You can learn more about the broad range of confidential mental health services
available on campus via http://www.mentalhealth.umn.edu/.

A REMINDER OF RELEVANT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

* SOCIOLOGY DEPARTMENT POLICIES *

GRADE INFORMATION: Grades are due in the Office the Registrar within 3 business days
after the final examination. No information regarding grades will be released by the department
office staff to anyone except designated personnel in Records and college offices. Students
may access their own grades through the MyU Portal.

INCOMPLETES: It is the instructor's responsibility to specify conditions under which an

Incomplete (I) grade is assigned. Students should refer to the course syllabus and talk with the
instructor as early as possible if they anticipate not completing the course work. Coursework

12
submitted after the final examination will generally be evaluated down unless prior
arrangements are made in writing by the instructor. University policy states that if completion of
the work requires the student to attend class in substantial part a second time, assigning an “I”
grade is NOT appropriate. Incompletes are appropriate only if the student can make up the
coursework independently with the same professor. Students need to have completed a
substantial portion of the course in order to be even considered for an Incomplete.

MAKE-UP EXAMINATIONS: Arrangements for special examinations must be made directly

with the instructor who taught the course and who is responsible for approving and supervising
the examination or making individual arrangements. Circumstances for missing an exam
include, but are not necessarily limited to: verified illness, participation in athletic events or other
group activities sponsored by the University, serious family emergencies, subpoenas, jury duty,
military service, and religious observances. It is the responsibility of the student to notify faculty
members of such circumstances as far in advance as possible.

GRADE CHANGES: Grades properly arrived at are not subject to renegotiation unless all
students in the class have similar opportunities. Students have the right to check for possible
clerical errors in the assignment of grades by checking with the instructor and/or teaching
assistant.

Students with justifiable complaints about grades or classroom procedures have recourse
through well-established grievance procedures. You are expected to confer first with the course
instructor. If no satisfactory solution is reached, the complaint should be presented in writing to
the department Director of Undergraduate Studies or the Coordinator of Undergraduate
Advising (909 Soc Sci). If these informal processes fail to reach a satisfactory resolution, other
formal procedures for hearing and appeal can be invoked. See the departmental advisor in 923
Social Sciences to explore options.

DISABILITY SERVICES: Students with disabilities that affect their ability to participate fully in
class or to meet all course requirements are encouraged to bring this to the attention of the
instructor so that appropriate accommodations can be arranged. For more info contact the
Disability Resource Center in 180 McNamara. https://disability.umn.edu

SEXUAL HARASSMENT: "Sexual harassment" means unwelcome sexual advances, requests

for sexual favors, and/or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature. Faculty, Graduate
Students, and full time Staff are Mandated Reporters for prohibited conduct. Such behavior is
not acceptable in the University setting. If you have experienced sexual misconduct,
discrimination, harassment, or related retaliation; or if you have questions about any
EOAA-related issue, please contact Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action (EOAA) at (612)
624-9547 or eoaa@umn.edu For the complete policy, visit
