Covering recent scholarship on girls in the context of the conceptual and theoretical frameworks developed in the field of women’s studies, this course highlights the gendered character of the concerns of childhood, child development, and adolescence. In order to understand the cultural forces shaping the lives of girls, the course investigates both the scholarly literature on girls as well as girls’ literature and culture, situating girls in terms of class, gender, race, ethnicity, and sexuality. Students will come to understand the values, structures, and trajectories that have come to define girlhood, girls’s identities, and girls’ practices.

This course explores the diversity of women’s experiences emerging from postcolonial or "third world" contexts, with particular attention to the challenges that considerations of differences as well as transnational connections pose for feminist thought and practice. Questions of representation, agency, and border crossings are grounded in local histories and the ambiguous implications of a globalization and "development" in out-of-the-way places. (MULTI-CULTURAL; CROSS-DISCIPLINARY)

This course is a social study of the mutual shaping of gender and technology. Beginning with the assumption that technologies are not gender neutral in their design or effects, the course examines both gender and technology as cultural and political categories. Students study how technologies help to form and distinguish the realm of the masculine and the feminine, as well as how ideas about gender help form our views of technology. Students will also examine the impact of new technologies, such as new information and communication technologies, on contemporary gender relations. (MULTI-CULTURAL; CROSS-DISCIPLINARY; COMPUTER)

Contemporary issues such as famine, genetically-modified foods, and the "slow food" movement are discussed. (MULTI-CULTURAL; CROSS-DISCIPLINARY)
