Gender and Globalization

-

Examines how scholars have understood and made sense of how gender issues intersect with economic globalization. Focuses on two aspects of economic globalization - goods and services, and migration. Students will have the opportunity to discover through assigned readings and in-class discussions how scholars from a range of disciplines/theoretical frameworks, (eg economics, history, cultural studies, anthropology, sociology, political science, feminist, post-colonial theory), have contributed to our understanding of economic globalization and the way in which gender and globalization intersect.
