This course will focus on gender issues and public policy. Our focus will not be on the technical aspects of policy making, but rather on the implicit and often explicit assumptions about gender incorporated into policy and on examining the context and causes of policy shifts over time. We will also be attentive to women as political claimants seeking to influence policies that effect their lives, and to the different ways that women experience policies. One of the primary goals of this course is to address the problem of agreeing on a definition of gender justice and the consequent challenges involved in developing gender-justice policies. Topics will include reproductive technology and control, sexual violence, workplace problems (discrimination, pay equity, childcare), legal rights, welfare, and military obligation. No prerequisite.
