ARGS 845 - Gender and Globalization

3 credits
Explores 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. Includes an interdisciplinary 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 case studies from a range of countries will also inform students’ understanding. Also analyzes various novels through the lens of gender and globalization.
