Even though we will go over multiple theories, we will pay particular attention to black feminist thought, transnational feminism, queer theory, and queer of color critique. We will consider various questions, including: What is the role of social and sociological theory in understanding gender and sexuality? What diverse methodological approaches/considerations are employed in studies of gender and sexualities? What are the various genealogies of these fields of study? We will read and discuss both theoretical and empirical studies on topics including: political economy of gender and sexuality, migration and transnational mobilities, racisms, urban inequalities and gentrification, nation and nationalism, masculinities and femininities, and social movements and organizing. We will also think about knowledge production processes, and consider the importance of theories of/from the global south. This course is open to students from all disciplines. It is not required to have a background in gender and sexuality to take the course. This course meets with GWS 590, CRN 69085 Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
