3 unit(s)

(cross-listed as Anthropology *735)

The focus is on the analytical tension between analyses of culture, power, agency and discourse, and what each can contribute to an understanding of emerging local and global processes and contexts. The course presents different viewpoints on these concepts and analytical tools by addressing current debates in areas like development, ethnicity, nationalism, gender, place and social movements.
