This course provides an overview of anthropological, sociological, and feminist approaches to gender with an emphasis on the Canadian context. Through an intersectional lens that addresses gender in conjunction with other power laden categories of race, religion, sexuality, and social class, students will gain a greater awareness of and sensitivity to the psychological, social, and political effects of gender in Canada and its connections to colonial and capitalist systems of oppression and privilege. Changes to social values, governmental policies, and laws in Canadian society that have redefined the meaning of "normal" and "deviant" gender roles and behaviours will be highlighted.
