SOCIAL PROBLEMSDr. Brenda Forster
NOTE: The course syllabus and other related documents are available through Blackboard.
Sometimes it is difficult to determine whether a magazine's focus is conservative,
liberal or radical. One way to determine this is by using Magazines for Libraries
by William and Linda Sternberg Katz (R 050.25 M189, located behind the Reference
Desk). The magazines listed below are a sample of various points-of-view to
get you started.
| Conservative | Liberal | Radical |
* Current issues of these magazines are also available for browsing at the library. Journals and magazines are arranged alphabetically by title.
|
Please
keep in mind that online versions of magazines may not contain all of
the articles in a particular issues, or allow you full access to the entirity
of an article. To get the full text of the article, check our
list of journals and newspapers available online; then search for
your article in the appropriate database.
