ROME 370 – Urban & Global Rome – 1 Trinity Credit – This is an interdisciplinary course that draws on perspectives from anthropology, sociology, political science, geography, economy and other relevant disciplines. It offers the students local perspectives on globalization as it allows global perspectives on the city of Rome. The intertwined processes of globalization and localization (“globalization”) will be addressed via an in-depth study of the city and the social, cultural, political, demographic and economic transformations Rome is currently going through. On-site visits will enable students to experience alternative settings of the “Eternal City” and give them direct contact with local inhabitants and representatives of religious/ethnic minority groups. Faculty: Piero Vereni; Simone Cerulli (TA)
Based on the Aventine Hill, the southernmost of Rome’s seven hills, Trinity’s Rome Campus is surrounded by ancient churches, monasteries, and spectacular views. Students enjoy a superb location, renowned faculty, stimulating fieldwork in Rome, excursions and the city’s unparalleled lively cosmopolitan culture.
