ANT 105: Culture And Society
3 credits
Students will gain strategies for understanding and responding critically to the concepts of culture and society through ethnography and multidisciplinary sources. The course looks at cultural categories, social institutions, structures of power, including race, racism, justice, gender, and socio-economic class and how these inform peoples' everyday lives and choices. (Learning Goals:G;Distribution Reqs:Social Sciences)
Learning Goals
Through course materials that are anthropologically grounded but multidisciplinary in scope, and through assessments that include peer group work, students will:1) acquire greater comfort in thinking and writing critically about the concepts of culture and society;2) go beyond given explanations and assumptions about behaviour, including the categories of race, gender, and class; and cultural variations;3) demonstrate more nuanced interpretations of cultural practices and societal responses to racism, justice, hierarchies of power, and variations in human behaviour.
