Introduction to Women's Studies. (3). (HU). (R&E).
Designed as an introduction to the new feminist scholarship on
women, this is an interdisciplinary course which acquaints students
with key concepts and theoretical frameworks to analyze women's
condition. We will explore how women's status has changed over
time, but we will concentrate on the situation of contemporary
American women. The course will not only provide students with
an analysis of women's oppression, but will suggest strategies
for ending sexual inequality. Topics include: violence against
women, workplace discrimination, the feminization of poverty, health care and sexuality, and the intersections of gender with
capitalism, racism, and imperialism.
