POLI 187M SC - Feminist Political Thought
Feminist political thinkers shed light on the role of gender in shaping our social position and experience of the world. In this course, we will read authors who take up questions of gender-based oppression in order to make visible marginalized persons and groups, and seek out practices of political empowerment and solidarity. We consider themes and episodes including the women’s, black feminist, and Chicana liberation movements; the evolving problem of gender and capitalism - from women’s relegation to the domestic sphere to the contemporary exploitation of care work in neoliberal economies; racialized sexuality and governmental power; experiences of inheritance, depression, anxiety, and anger; and reparative strategies of care and resistance.
