Women and Global Issues

Catalog description

TAUGHT IN FRENCH: In this class, we will explore how globalization is bringing to the fore issues that are affecting and shaping women’s lives throughout the world. Through essays, various literary pieces and films, we will examine how dichotomies that are usually identified in feminist discourse take on a renewed life as increased interconnectedness that comes with globalization shapes religious, economic, cultural and political issues.
