Catalog Description :
An advanced discussion-focused course with a rotating topic determined by faculty in the global studies program. Topics will be wide-ranging, but will include a global perspective and contribute to one of the four global studies thematic tracks (human security, global cities, nations and identities, or arts and exchange). May be repeated when topic is different.
Topic for Spring 2018: West(s) and the Rest?: Transnational Feminisms and Globalization
How do feminist discourses change and get changed by globalization? This seminar analyzes intersectionality in testimonies and fictions of globalization (from postsocialist eastern Europe, Asia, and other areas). These texts (new media, performance, documentary, prose, poetry) remain marked by political ideologies aimed toward utopias defined against a capitalist West. In discussions, presentations, and essays, students will critique power structures in transnational texts in an effort to imagine better shared worlds.
