Note: Law School courses begin a week earlier, thus the first class is on January 10th, 2006 not 1/17/06.
4pts. In this graduate course exploring major topics in feminist theory and scholarship, students will attend biweekly workshops led by guest lecturers at the Law School. In advance of these presentations of new work or work-in-progress by scholars of feminist theory, students will read the papers to be presented and write short response papers intended to facilitate discussion with the lecturer. The lectures this year are organized around the theme of Gender and the Market. The list of speakers may include Mary Anne Case, Emma Coleman Jordan, Angela Harris, Victoria DeGrazia, Jean Howard, and Martha Howell. In the off weeks, students will read and discuss classic and contemporary work on the same theme - from Friedrich Engels to Patricia Williams - in a small seminar setting. Final projects may center on this theme or may forward other research interests.
