WGS 581 Seminar in Gender, Power, Politics/Graduate Consortium in Women’s Studies

This course investigates theories, methodologies and practices of feminist inquiry in the social sciences. We look at the many ways in which feminist scholarship has sought to understand and theorize power and politics. It is designed as a seminar for students who are motivated to think critically about a range of issues related to gender and politics and relations of power. It introduces students to feminist theoretical frameworks for thinking about power, as well as to empirical explorations of a variety of key topics within the larger field of gender and politics.
