SOC 213 Women, Society and Culture

This course will consider the condition of contemporary women in our own and other societies. We will study a variety of theoretical perspectives, e.g. psychological, cultural, structural that throw light on the sex/gender relationship; and will explore their applicability in a cross-cultural context. Such issues as male/female relations, economic and political inequality, the role of motherhood, sexuality, and forms of resistance and protest will be discussed.
