課程概述 |
Gender, as an institution and a social structure, influences the way we define ourselves, behave and speak and further determines our place within the family, at school, in workplaces, and in the broader society. We will use this course to explore how gender shapes our identities, opportunities, and everyday life.
The course includes seven themes: (1) conceptual tool kits; (2) gender, space, and place; (3) gendering work; (4) gender and family; (5) transgender; (6) intersectionality; (7) gender in the global context.
Theme One ‘Conceptual Tool Kits’ introduces main theories and key literature on gender. In Theme Two, we will discuss the relationship between gender and space by reading literature on feminist geography. We will then turn to Theme Three, which focuses on gender in labour markets, organisations, and everyday workplaces. In Theme Four ‘Gender and Family,’ we look at gender relations between couples and family members. We then briefly explore the multi-faceted connections between gender, sex, sexuality, and other social characteristics, such as class and race, in Themes Five and Six. In Theme Seven, we look at the differences and similarities in gender relations in various cultural and social contexts in the globalised world. |
課程目標 |
At the end of this course, you should have a general understanding of major concepts and theories around gender and be able to use a gender lens to examine social phenomena. |

1) Your attendance at this course and active participation in class discussions are essential to the successful completion of this course.
2) Two memos on readings: You should choose two readings from the reading list provided in the course outline and write memos on the two readings. Each of these memos should be of a maximum length of 1,200 words, written in English, and sent to me by at least three working days before your oral presentation. These memos should summarise the main arguments of the selected papers or books and your own thoughts on the selected readings.
