POS 202 Gender Politics

Given that there is disagreement over not only the ends of politics but also the uses to which we put politics (defined broadly as the way we settle, if only temporarily, how we live our collective lives), might some of that disagreement come from seeing and experiencing the world differently based on one's gender or racial background? This course examines the ways in which gender intersects with race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, and geography to structure political participation, policy, and the very definition of politics itself. Fulfills diversity requirement. (US & PT) (C8)
