609201 Gender Studies A
summer semester 2019 | Last update: 01.12.2021 | Place course on memo listThis course introduces students to key concepts, theories, and directions in the field of Gender Studies through the analysis of a selection of texts in critical theory, contemporary literature, and film.
Gender Studies is an interdisciplinary field that examines feminist and queer theoretical perspectives including race/ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, and other identities. This course teaches students to think critically about the social construction of identity and the politics of knowledge production. Students will use these skills to understand people's lives within a global context and analyse the systems of oppression that contribute to continuing economic, political, and cultural inequalities. They will not only be encouraged to use gender as a category of analysis, but also to reflect on the manifestation of gender in their own lives, leading to a range of personal and intellectual discoveries.
Continuous assessment (based on regular written and/or oral contributions by the participants).
