Section Title:
Spaces of Marxism
Section Info:
This reading-intensive module explores Marxian analyses of relations between capital and space. We will investigate how scholars use Marx to explain processes of colonization, urbanization, uneven development, and agrarianism. We also engage with newer texts using Marxian concepts to critically examine ethnoracialized spaces including slave plantations, carceral networks, colonial settlements, sweatshops, ghettoized neighborhoods, slums, and borderlands; and gendered spaces including the domestic sphere, workplaces, prisons, sex markets, and spaces of care work.
