INTS
390 section 001: Whiteness
Professor Mark Driscoll
Counts
toward the Transnational Cultures theme
This course will look at whiteness as it has been constructed
relationally in philosophy, media and political culture. "White studies"
has emerged since the late 1990s as an interdisciplinary arena of academic
inquiry centered on the cultural, historical and sociological aspects of
people phenotypically understood as white, and the social construction of
whiteness as an ideology tied to social status. This course will begin with
modern racial hierarchies established in the philosophies of Kant and Hegel
and move on to see how these were expressed in the emergence of both
"scientific racism" and in British imperialism in Asia and Africa. The second area of the course will focus on
the ways in which the United
States both adopted and transformed
elements of British racial hierarchy after WW II as it became the global
hegemonic force. Finally, the last part of the class will look at the ways
in which whiteness re-emerges in the "new scientific racism" of
genomics and human engineering. Texts will range from European philosophy
to the recent television series Lost.
INTS
390 section 002: Critical Perspectives on Development in China
Professor Michael Tsin
Counts as an Asia Area Course
Where is China heading in the
twenty-first century? Three decades
from its reintegration into the global capitalist economic order, it
remains unclear, from the perspectives of many Americans, whether China represents a long-term partner or foe
for the United States. While the Western media is fond of
touting China
turning “capitalist,” the Chinese leadership insists that it is
constructing a Chinese-style socialist future for the country. Is that rhetoric or vision? This course will explore the various
political, economic, and social challenges facing China today, ranging from the
legitimacy of its Communist government and the impacts of its robust
consumer economy to its environmental problems and issues involving its
ethnic minorities. It will try to
arrive at some preliminary assessment of the ramifications of “China’s
Rise,” as the Chinese media likes to call it, on both its own people and
the world at large.
INTS
490 section 001: Diversity and Conformity in Muslim Societies
Professors Banu Gokariksel and
Sarah Shields
Counts
toward the Transnational Cultures theme
The fall semester of 2009 will focus on two
themes, “Nationalists and Salafis,” which explores the kinds of orthodoxies
that have emerged during the course of anti-imperialism and decolonization
in Asia, Africa and the Middle East.
And the second, “Hermaphrodites, Minorities, and Constitutions,”
which will interrogate the ways that governments and popular movements have
marginalized or incorporated people who are on the gender/ethnic/religious
edges, and how the latter have mobilized against marginalization.
