Section Title:
Decolonizing Knowledge
Section Info:
This course examines the multiple streams, sites, and positionalities of contestation, rethinking, and renewed knowledge production that have contributed to the theory, methodology, praxis, politics, and poetics associated with the “decolonizing generations.” Anthropologists around the world, in dialogue with each other and with thinkers from other fields, are probing the interplay of knowledge and power in light of problems germane to modernity/coloniality, including white supremacy, heteropatriarchy, and accumulation by exploitation and expropriation in racial capitalism. These scholars dare to re-imagine possibilities for knowledge otherwise beyond the confining boundaries of the cognitive empire toward regenerative landscapes for epistemic equity.

Section Title:
Critical Border Studies
Section Info:
Be it in Europe, the Americas, the United States, or elsewhere in the globe, there has been belligerent calls to tighten international borders, and better regulate, who can settle, who can migrate, who must leave, and who should be held. Detention, policing, and the surveillance of immigrants and refugees has augmented exponentially. Keeping the pressing presence of the present central, the course moves through theoretical shifts underscoring the frictions among questions of movement, borders, migrations, and refugee studies with respect to the debates on abolition, biopolitics, settler colonialism, and other currents.
