Gender, Power and Politics, 7.5 Credits
What counts as politics, or as a political problem, is not self-evident. This course problematizes the concept of politics from a feminist perspective. It addresses gender equality policy and women’s representation in parliamentary politics, as well as extra-parliamentary feminist activism and other gender political struggles such as the LGBTQI movement. Feminist perspectives on foreign policy, violence, security and sustainability are addressed. Throughout, intersectional perspectives are used to problematize gender, power and politics.
