Peruvian Anthropologist Marisol de la Cadena in a famous article (1995) examined how women come to embody poverty, race and ethnicity in the ‘development world’. Combining Anthropological with feminist theories and concepts, this course considers how international development processes have become shaped by gender discourses. By looking at case studies we examine how international development has affected gender relations around the world. This course introduces students to key concepts in the analysis of social relations between women and men in different cultural, economic and political contexts. To do so it engages with different understandings of femininities and masculinities with a constant focus on intersectionality. Providing a theoretical and conceptual grounding this course is organized around substantive and policy topics related to poverty, labour markets, women's employment, migration, and globalisation. |
