Sociology 210B Gender, Class, and Race Spring 2017 Brandeis
Sociology 210b Gender, Class, and Race Spring 2017 Brandeis University Professor Karen V. Hansen Wed. 2 to 4:50 Pearlman Hall 209 Pearlman 203 781-736-2651 Office Hours: Wed 10 to 12 [email protected] & by appointment Course Description This course examines the ways that gender, class, and race are conceptualized, constituted, and interpreted. Beginning with gender, it will explore contrasting intersectional theoretical approaches as well as methodological questions and empirical studies. How do social structures and individual agency intertwine to produce gendered, raced, and classed individuals? How are structures reproduced through institutions and action over time and generation? How is change accomplished? The class will examine power and inequality embedded and reinforced in social structures, everyday practices, and internalized identities. It does not seek to be exhaustive. Rather, it introduces students to a range of perspectives that provide analytic tools for asking questions about the social world, interrogating assumptions of theoretical paradigms, assessing empirical research, and constructing an intersectional study. This exploration involves asking epistemological questions. How do we know what we know? As sociologists, in our efforts to surface and analyze patterns of sometimes invisible or elusive social phenomena, at every turn we are going to ask questions about method and sources. If we want to understand inequality from multiple perspectives, including that of the dispossessed, disempowered, and oppressed, how do we gain access to them? Where do we find narratives and experience from these groups? How do we assess and interpret them? How do we adapt our angle of vision given our respective social location? Choose our analytic tools? Assess intersecting structures of inequality? This seminar explores these theoretical and methodological issues through deep engagement with the HistoryMakers Digital Archive, a collection of over 1,600 oral histories with African Americans now available at Brandeis. -
