Students can systematically compare their lives as women and men with those of others around the world using social-science perspectives and increase their understanding of the gendered aspects of the dynamics of global cultural and economic interaction. Students will be able to apply theories of intersectionality and feminism as well as perform critical analyses of socioeconomic dimensions of gendered lives in local and global contexts.

ANTH 332 - Global Environmental Sustainability Credit(s): 3 GLOBAL ENVIRON SUSTAINABILITY Component: Lecture This course takes a cross-cultural approach to understanding one of the greatest challenges of the modern era: environmental sustainability. We begin from the premise that climate change, pollution, resource depletion, and environmental racism are social problems rooted in human relationships to the natural world. What can we learn about these problems and potential solutions from looking at how diverse societies relate to nature and manage resources? What can we learn from indigenous peoples, social movements, and intentional communities whose values and practices offer alternative visions for how to organize human-environment relations? This course draws on anthropological methods and research findings to examine diverse ways of defining “sustainability” and living sustainably. We apply these findings to critically examine current debates and approaches to environmental issues, from the United Nations Climate Change accords to corporate sustainability platforms and environmental justice movements.

ANTH 343 - Motherhood and Contested Reproduction Credit(s): 3 MOTHERHOOD & CONTESTED REPROD Component: Lecture Reproduction is more contested than ever, and is both shaped by and shaping the diverse cultural backgrounds and beliefs of people everywhere. Reproduction is a topic and experience that cuts across multiple political and personal issues: it is at once a deeply intimate and highly public process with implications for both individuals and societies. In this course we identify, examine, and explore dominant narratives about motherhood and reproduction from cross-cultural perspectives, and the personal stakes and political scales at which different experiences of motherhood impact. We focus specifically on motherhood since it is the relationship between mother and child that is predominantly politicized in various configurations of power both historically and contemporaneously, although we do examine topics related to parenthood more broadly. Through the study of ethnographic research, we look critically and cross-culturally at topics related to: contraception, family planning, fertility, pregnancy, birth, early childhood, motherhood, parenthood, child welfare interventions, media and popular cultural representations of motherhood, and labor and work, especially as these topics intersect with concerns related to nationhood, gender, sexuality, racism, class, socio-economic status, religion, politics, ethnicity, and cultural background.

ANTH 354 - Global Humanitarianism Credit(s): 3 GLOBAL HUMANITARIANISM Component: Discussion This course explores the politics, ethics, and dimensions of cultural diversity that are embedded in situations of global humanitarianism-but often ignored, through claims of the supposed ‘neutrality’ of humanitarian intervention. Humanitarianism claims that all humans have the same right to care and protection, yet in reality human life continues to be unfairly stratified according to race, sexuality, gender, and ability: something that humanitarianism does not automatically solve. In this class, we dig deep into the ways that politics and social position frames humanitarian encounters, and we will particularly focus on the ways that people within groups who receive these interventions-particularly in continental Africa, or in situations of forced migration-themselves perceive and experience them. We go beyond the spectacle of celebrity humanitarianism, and consider instead the historical and cultural specificity of humanitarianism, and the politics of life and death.

ANTH 355 - Culture, Law, and Human Rights Credit(s): 3 CULTURE, LAW, HUMAN RIGHTS Component: Lecture We live in an age when social policy is increasingly decided in courtrooms. When social justice and equality are matters of courtroom debate rather than legislative action. When international law and human rights accords have become a key resource in all kinds of struggles for justice and recognition. In this course, we study the cultural dimensions of law and human rights and examine law’s changing relationship to state power, the global economy, social movements, and everyday life. We approach law as a system of rules, obligations, and procedures. We also understand it as a cultural practice and moral regime. We ask: how are law, politics, and economics enmeshed and with what consequences? How does law provide tools for both social struggle and social control? How does anthropology contribute to our understanding of these issues? To answer these questions, we combine readings from classical legal anthropology with recent writings and other media produced by anthropologists, journalists, and activists working across the globe. This course is of particular interest to students concerned with law, policy, government, and related professions, as well as issues of social justice and diversity.
