Gender and Society - SOCI706

This unit provides a survey of the field of gender studies by introducing key debates and theories in feminist thought. The emphasis will be on gender as an object of inquiry, as well as an epistemological and methodological practice. The unit design invites students to consider how the idea of theory as practice is reflected in the ways in which they plan and conduct their own research. This unit welcomes both gender studies majors seeking further theoretical training, as well as those new to the field for whom the content provides intensive introduction.
