LAS 302 - Gender and Latin American States

Institution:

Princeton University

Subject:

Description:

This course examines the intersection of gender, power, and identity in various states in Mesoamerica. It explores states of different time periods and political movements (e.g., pre-Columbian, colonial, national and transnational state systems), bisecting traditional divides in prehistory and history. Rather than approach gender from an evolutionary perspective, readings and discussions focus on comparative analyses that both challenge monolithic perspectives of social power and underscore historical contingency in the constitution of gender.
