Gender and Society

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: GVAGS2

The aim of the course is to analyse the role of gender in society in terms of interdisciplinary and intersectional gender studies perspectives. Students develop an independent ability to discuss, theorise, and analyse the role of gender in societal development. The course covers different empirical and theoretical perspectives in gender studies in relation to how gender, ethnicity, class, religion, ability, and sexuality interplay with societal institutions and the development of society, with a focus on how this interplay creates and shapes gendered bodies, subjects, identifications, gender relations, and power structures. The course also outlines the development of different gender studies theories and concepts which relate to these issues, including the theories and concepts of feminist, postcolonial, and critical race studies, transgender studies, queer studies, critical men's and masculinity studies, and feminist studies of health, medicine, and technology.
