SOC 565 - Seminar on Sex & Gender

Institution:

California State University-Bakersfield

Subject:

Description:

In this seminar we treat gender as a social relationship of privilege and oppression. We begin by analyzing the construction of gender as a social/political category. We pay attention to the ways in which gender inequality is created, sustained, and changed through cultural and institutional practices. We analyze the links between gender, class, and race, and we explore how social locations in these multiple systems of privilege and oppression shape women's and men's experiences of gender. The seminar carries a heavy reading load and students are expected to participate in seminar discussions.
