1 Course Syllabus: SUP 170 FAITH IN ACTION Spring 2011 Faculty: Dr. Timothy Nelson Faculty Asst: Daphne Flowers Office: Taubman 454 FA Office: Taubman 459B Phone: FA Phone: FA Course Description: Despite the greatly exaggerated proclamations of its demise over the last century, religion persists as a powerful force in the world. The goal of the course is to identify and analyze the roles which individual faith and organized religion play in the public realm and to equip students with the necessary tools to effectively relate to religiously motivated actors. The most important of these is simply to understand the powerful motivations, perspectives, identities, commitments and resources which each faith tradition continues to provide to the majority of the world s population. In this course we are concerned with the public face of religion, or the relationship of faith communities to those outside of their boundaries. Three of the major public roles of religion as citizen, as neighbor and as prophet are the ones which concern us here. 1. Religion as Citizen Faith traditions generally transcend borders, yet religious organizations and individuals all exist within particular nation states and civil societies. Recognizing the diversity of relations between these religious groups and states is an important step to understanding public religious action more generally. 2. Religion as Neighbor Religious organizations are often engaged in providing families and communities with material resources and social services. We will observe how these activities occur at the level of the individual believer (charitable giving, volunteer work), the organizational level (congregational outreach, faith-based organizations), as well as the transnational work of religious NGOs and other actors. 3. Religion as Prophet Finally, we look at religion in its most controversial role as a social movement which seeks to remake the world in accordance with its particular visions of morality, peace, justice, equality and other transcendentally-derived values. Here we will seek to understand the circumstances under which religion becomes politicized, as well as how the faithful are mobilized to join particular movements. Because of the wide diversity of religious expressions, even within the larger faith traditions, the extraordinary complexities of religion s intersection with ethnic and national identities, legacies of power and exploitation (colonialism, slavery, etc.), and its varied relations with state authority, the focus of the course will be limited to three regions: the United States, Europe, and the Middle East.
2 Course Requirements: 1. Students are expected to come to each class session having read the assigned material and prepared to engage in informed discussion. There is an average of two articles or book chapters assigned per class period, or about 120 pages of reading per week. 2. At the end of the first week of the semester, each student will write a word essay on where he or she stands with respect to religion itself and its proper role in public life. There is no right or wrong answer to this and it will not be graded. The purpose is for students to reflect on their assumptions and experiences in the beginning of the course, and for the professor to get a sense of where students are coming from regarding these often personal and emotional issues. 3. Each student will be expected to post a 500 word comment to the course blog by Sunday evening at 7:00 PM., beginning on February 6. One part of the post should be a reflection on the prior reading/discussion from Thursday, and one part should address the readings for the coming Tuesday. These posts should not strive to summarize the readings, but to highlight what important issues or concepts these readings raise for you in light of your own experiences, your understanding of what s happening in the world, and, perhaps, the dilemmas and challenges for policy makers. Early posts are encouraged, and students may comment on an earlier post in their postings. All posts will be graded on the thoughtfulness and creativity of the response and are not meant to be reviews of the reading. Posts which do not address the reading, or show poor understanding of the reading, will be given a grade of check minus. Check pluses will be relatively rare. Late posts are not accepted except under special circumstances and with preapproval from the instructor. Even so, they cannot receive better than a check grade. Students may skip two responses without penalty. 4. Finally, each student will write a page research and analysis paper on a topic of their choosing related to the course. Topics must be approved by the instructor.
