  • WOM STD 0801: Border Crossings: Gendered Dimensions of Globalization

    3.00 Credits
    Temple University

    Explore the ways in which gender “works” in different cultural and national contexts, and the impact globalization has on gender relations. “Gender” indicates the ways in which our social lives are organized around categories of male and female – in relation to work, family, sexuality, culture, and nation. “Globalization” describes the transfer of economic and cultural goods between nations and peoples. Questions we will ask include: What is globalization and how do women and men experience it differently? Do women and men work the same jobs in the global labor market, and do they get paid the same wages? How does immigration affect families? Does a growing connectedness between cultures and nations change traditional gender roles? How different are experiences of women in the “Third World” from those of women in the “First World,” and why? Investigate these issues together by reading critical writings as well as Internet blogs, watching films/documentaries, and analyzing popular media.

    Note: This course fulfills the World Society (GG) requirement for students under GenEd and International Studies (IS) for students under Core.

    Being a man or a woman means feeling like a man or a woman. People display gender by learning the routines and expectations associated with being male or female. How do people learn gender?

How do race, ethnicity and sexuality affect the way gender is experienced for these different groups? How does gender acquire such important meaning in terms of identity and behavior? Using a variety of written materials including novels that explore gender identity construction, this course looks at how gender has become such a prominent feature of life in America.

    This class aims at broadening our understandings of women’s involvement in and influences on American political culture by reading life narratives of women in social movements. The focus will be in particular on movements that usually are not associated with women’s political and cultural work, such as Native American Rights, Black Power, anarchist and workers’ movements, and the Religious Right.

Questions we will explore include: Why did these women get politically involved? How were their experiences in social movements shaped by their gender? What is their cultural and political legacy? Why did they write about their life, and why do we read their narratives?
