Religion, Culture, and Society 273: Religion and Politics in Latin America
1.00 Credits
Gustavus Adolphus College
Religion and politics have been interwoven in the Americas since the rise of indigenous American cultures. Starting with the initial clash between European Christianity (missions and conquistadors) and the indigenous cultures, this course will analyze the interaction of religion and politics through time, including struggles for independence, continuing political upheavals, resistance movements, and theologies of liberation and revolution. It asks why so many Latin Americans choose to be Christian. Theological investigations include the role of the poor, conflicts over land, and current popular movements such as Brazil's Landless Workers' Movement. HIPHI, NWEST, Spring semester, odd years.

Religion, Culture, and Society 355: Buddhist Philosophy
1.00 Credits
Gustavus Adolphus College
This course will examine writings of three of the most influential religious philosophers in 20th-century Japan: Nishida, Tanabe, and Nishitani. We will focus on how these authors employed Western and Buddhist philosophies to construct a "uniquely Japanese" subjectivity in response to "Westernization." The guiding theme in this study will be the tension between traditional religious values and the social/cultural changes brought on by modernization. The course will examine the attempts by these thinkers to construct a philosophy that would seriously and effectively address the problems of the modern world and also disclose a uniquely Japanese cultural/religious identity.
