402506 SE Politics and Gender
summer semester 2016 | Last update: 19.04.2016 | Place course on memo listDie Studierenden verfügen über ein fundiertes Wissen über die wichtigsten Strömungen der
politikwissenschaftlichen Geschlechterforschung und können die Kategorie Geschlecht/Gender
in Interdependenz mit anderen Kategorien – wie Ethnizität, Klasse, Sexualität – unter Berücksichtigung
ihrer historischen Gewachsenheit sowie ihrem Veränderungspotential analysieren.
Die Studierenden sind fähig, sowohl politische Theorien unterschiedlicher Reichweite als auch
empirische Forschung in Hinblick auf deren explizite und implizite Geschlechternormen kritisch
zu hinterfragen. Sie können politische Strategien der Geschlechterpolitik auf nationaler, europäischer
und internationaler Ebene differenziert und eigenständig beurteilen.
Previous nation-bound models are being replaced by transnational approaches that draw on the knowledge and experiences of women and about gender in a global perspective. In this seminar we will study how transnational feminist organizing moves away from the 'global sisterhood' position. Herein power is understood to be global in its reach, to have multiple sources and to take many forms even as these diverse forms of power interact, manifesting themselves in context-specific ways to produce particular conjunctures of oppression. Through reading of major texts in transnational feminist studies, we will critically evaluate the relationship between women and nation; between gender justice and globalization; and between feminist theory and practice. The objective of this class is to explore the challenges and future of transnational feminist theory.
