PXD 375 Globalization and Justice (3 SH)

The task in this class is to examine the debates about globalization. Is it new? Is it a force for good or bad? Does it bring people together or drive them apart? Is it a homogenizing or fragmenting force? What, or who, drives it? Is 'globalization' just another word for 'Westernization'? How is it being resisted? We will also engage a further set of questions concerning theology and the church. How is globalization affecting the church? What does it mean to think in terms of a church whose center of gravity is no longer Europe and North America (if it ever was)?
