IDIS 391: Senior Seminar in African and African Diaspora Studies
3.00 Credits
Calvin University
S, alternate years. This course covers the parallel and simultaneously unique stories of Africa and the African Diaspora from their common colonial histories to the contemporary issues and transformative movements of today. From Africa to the West, colonialization and neo-colonialization have formed the historical and social context from which racialized gender representations, identity, and resistance have emerged. Drawing on the fields of sociology, history, anthropology, political science, economics, and theology, this course utilizes a Christian lens to explore and critique those colonialism/neo-colonial roots as well as current issues, social movements, economic development, and the role of the church in transformative efforts throughout the Diaspora. Special attention is paid to critical theory, the neo-colonial social context, its operational impact, globalization, and means for social change. As a senior seminar, the course utilizes a seminar approach where the class discussion and structure derives from interactions with the texts, guest lectures, theories, and ideologies. The course carries an honors option (to be arranged with the professor) . Prerequisites: Three courses from the African or African Diaspora minor or by approval of the professor.
