ARGS 845 - Gender and Globalization3 credits
In this class we will explore how globalization shapes and is shaped by gender norms with a particular focus on questions related to ‘work,’ mobility and well-being. The importance of policy in shaping the mobility of humans, financial assets, goods and services, and ideas is key to understanding globalization processes and will provide an overarching set of themes for the course. The course will be interdisciplinary in its approach, drawing on economics, history, cultural studies, anthropology, sociology, political science, feminist and post-colonial theory to better understand economic globalization and the ways it is gendered. Both theoretical contributions to the question of how gender is shaped by/shapes globalization, as well as empirical case studies from a range of countries will also inform our understanding. We will also analyze various novels through the lens of gender and globalization.
