Centred on a specific contemporary topic, this course uses gender as a central category of analysis and reviews and explores other foundational concepts in more depth. Through selected materials including readings from feminist and queer theory as well as film and digital media, we will critically examine how gender intersects with other factors and shapes both individual experiences and social structures. Based on the specific topic focus, students will engage in discussion, research, and applied projects that connect theory to current social issues and activism.
