The Wire to be studied at University of York
The 10 week module titled The Wire as Social Science Fiction? Starts this autumn at the University of York, it’s thought to be the first of its kind in the UK and will be offered and studied by final year students as part of their sociology degree. The students that have signed up will need to have watched all 60 hour long episodes, the modules will look at topics including race, class and politics. Head of Sociology at the university explains that it's easier for students to use The Wire as a way of looking at the current political system than it is to get them to read a book on it or sit through hours of lectures. The Wire is already a study subject in Harvard University in the States.
