WMGST-410 Transnational Feminist Praxis
Seminar exploring contemporary and historical struggles for gender justice as intersecting with global forces of colonialism, imperialism, neoliberal capitalism, carcerality and militarism. We will examine how (1) economies, states and security apparatuses shape the movement and flow of peoples’ lives and resistance to structures of oppression across axes of gender, race, class, caste, sexuality and disability; and (2) how feminist scholars and activists theorize the workings and effects of national and transnational exploitative power regimes in relation to peoples’ organized struggles against these regimes.
