Objectivos
The main aim of this course is to develop observational, analytical and critical skills on culture. The focus is on social life and interaction, by encompassing sociological theory and concepts, as well as practical field experience.

- To understand the concept of Culture, its history, and its main versions and theoretical approaches.
- To understand the place of ?Culture? and Cultural Analysis in the universe of Social Sciences.
- To understand a selected array of Cultural Analysis?s topics, such as Economy, Consumer Culture, Society, like Market, Space and Time, the Public/Private divide, and also the many connections between them.
