Real Utopias: ASA Denver 2012

The theme of this year's annual ASA conference is "Real Utopias". I try to get students to open their imagination to what the possible future is 1) for themselves and 2)for the community around them. I use three themes throughout my units to develop and grow their analysis of these questions. The themes are: Sociological Imagination, Social Construction of Reality, and Sociological Mindfulness. Here is the outline of my presentation.
