Issues for Feminist Scholarship
The seminar is designed to inform
students about the inception and the development of feminist
scholarship in Canada and internationally, and to encourage
critical analysis of such questions as the connection between
feminist scholarship and feminist activism; the benefits and the
hazards of interdisciplinary research; the importance of making
interconnections between analyses of gender and analyses of
social class, race/ethnicity, and sexual orientation; and the
challenge of integrating feminist research into the traditional
disciplines. While the course focuses primarily on developments
in a selection of disciplines in the humanities and the social
sciences, students interested in gender as a category of analysis
are eligible to enroll in this course from all faculties,
including science and engineering.
Prerequisite: Graduate standing and permission of the Institute.
