Anthropology 32: Anthropology of Tibet and the Himalayas
3.00 Credits
Dartmouth College
09S: 2 This course introduces students to the peoples and cultures of Tibet and the greater Himalayan region (Nepal, northern India, Bhutan). We examine the cultural, ecological, political, religious, and economic interfaces that define life on the northern and southern slopes of Earth's greatest mountain range. In addition to learning about Himalayan and Tibetan lifeways, we will also learn about how these mountainous parts of Asia have figured into occidental imaginings, from the earliest adventurers to contemporary travelers and scholars. (ETHN) Dist: SOC, WCult: NW. Craig.

Anthropology 35: Culture,Class,and Community in Contemporary Mesoamerica
3.00 Credits
Dartmouth College
10S: 12 A comparative study of the Hispanic and indigenous societies of Mexico and Guatemala, this course will focus upon the synthesis of three developments that play a major role in the problems of nation-building and the formation of national consciousness in this region of the world: (a) the mixing of Spanish and pre-Columbian civilizations that has led to the creation of vital, if contradictory, indigenous cultures; (b) the role of conflicting social relations between the masses and elites and their effect upon demographic, economic, and intellectual developments; and (c) the new geopolitical importance of this region for the U.S. and the reciprocal growing influences of Hispanic culture in contemporary North America. Prerequisite: One course in Anthropology or Latin American, Latino and Caribbean Studies. (ETHN) Dist: SOC; WCult: CI. Watanabe.

Anthropology 36: Africa:The Ethnographic Encounter
3.00 Credits
Dartmouth College
09S: 1210W: 10 Africa is usually seen by westerners as a place of suffering and lack. From the AIDS crisis to Darfur we are shown that Africans suffer because they lack things like functioning governments, clean water, education, and business sense. This class moves beyond these stereo-types to examine how vibrant and diverse African cultures interact with forces such as urbanization, development, conservation and internet culture, paying special attention to how anthropologists understand and describe these processes. Prerequisite: One introductory course in anthropology or in AAAS or by permission. (ETHN). Igoe.

Anthropology 37: Legacies of Conquest:Latin America
3.00 Credits
Dartmouth College
09F: 11 Despite nearly five hundred years of conquest, colonialism, and change, native peoples still survive in culturally distinct enclaves within the dominant Iberian traditions of Latin America. This course examines the roots as well as the endemic social inequalities and prejudices that resulted. Selected case studies will relate to such contemporary problems as international drug trafficking, deforestation of the Amazon basin, and ongoing political repression and revolution in Central America. The course draws on the insights of local ethnographic studies to shed light on global problems, while anthropologically situating native cultures of Latin America in their larger historical and geopolitical context. Prerequisite: One course in anthropology or Latin American and Caribbean Studies. (ETHN). Dist: SOC. WCult: CI. Watanabe.

Anthropology 39: Ethnicity and Nationalism in Russia and Neighboring States
3.00 Credits
Dartmouth College
09W, 10W: 10 This course explores the emergence of ethnic identity and nationalism among the peoples of the Russian empire, the Soviet Union and their successor states. Drawing on anthropological and historical works, it examines the process of formation of a centralized multiethnic Russian empire and the liberation struggle of its nationalities prior to 1917. It then proceeds to the crucial period of 1917 - 1991 and explores the theory and practice of nationalities politics of the Bolshevik, Stalinist, and late Soviet socialism. The dissolution of the USSR, the rise of interethnic conflicts, and the relations between ethnic groups in Russia and the successor states are the focus of the second half of the course, where several case studies are discussed in depth. (ETHN) Dist: SOC; WCult: W. Kan.
