Anotace

čeština

The course will examine contemporary issues in gender-based violence (GBV) from both theoretical and applied viewpoints. We will discuss topics including understandings of gender and gendered violence, GBV in the media, intersectional experiences of GBV, and evolving areas of research, including the effect of the climate crisis (e.g., on migration), social justice and advocacy movements, and radical right-wing populism. The course will take a global and interdisciplinary perspective toward GBV and will pull from critical feminist, post-colonial, and intersectional scholarships. We will also use concepts from criminology, sociology, and psychology. The applied portions of this course will examine public policy as well as community-driven approaches to confronting GBV. The goal for the course is that students will be able to apply these diverse literatures to analyze and address GBV.
