Social Sciences: Critical Feminist Perspectives in Social Theory

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: SIMP28

<p>This interdisciplinary course focuses on feminist and gender theoretical interventions in other surrounding fields of study. We learn about the ways in which a focus on gender, along with race, class and sexuality, as the primary objects of study and categories of analysis, can contribute to developing theories and debates in relation to other fields. The student is introduced to the diversity of the field of feminist theory, and the issues in the current debate, feminist theoretical interventions and analytical tools. The student will learn to see gender from an analytical and a contextual perspective. They will also critically re-read the contributions of feminist research to their specific field of study.</p> <p>The course enables the student to acquire skills in the emerging tradition of feminist scholarship and will enable them to apply feminist perspectives to their own fields of study. The critical reading of the field of gender studies (trans-national, - postcolonial and decolonial feminist theory; queer theory; feminist studies of work and welfare) constitutes the core of the course, enabling the student to acquire theoretical and methodological skills and to expand their understanding of four general domains: work, the family, politics and culture.</p> <p>Further information: master@sam.lu.se</p><p>https://www.graduateschool.sam.lu.se/academics/course-catalogue/profile-and-elective-courses/spring-term-courses/critical-feminist-perspectives-social-theory-simp28</p>
