Course description

edit

How have scholars understood and made sense of the ways gender intersects with economic globalization? This course explores the impact globalization has had on women, with a particular focus on the issue of paid employment, as well as exploring men’s experiences, and the process of how gender norms are shaped by and shape globalization. The class also examines both general discussions of feminist contributions to the literature on gender and globalization, as well as specifics from globalization experiences, by drawing on empirical case studies from various countries.
