Overview
Although globalization at times seems dominated by new economic and political formations more powerful than the traditional nation-state, it has also mobilized new expressions of local and transnational discontent and resistance.
Global Studies offers a comprehensive framework for understanding the interactions of multiple sites across history by recognizing that local dynamics are embedded in a changing global system. The University of Tennessee Knoxville Global Studies curriculum helps students understand the implications of global change, allowing the university community to confront what is occurring in our immediate locale by examining what is going on elsewhere.
Bringing together faculty and students from diverse perspectives creates an interdisciplinary understanding of the disruption and integration resulting from changing configurations of nations, global processes, and identities.
