Introduction to Gender Studies: Perspectives and concepts (7,5 credits)
The course introduces classic and contemporary perspectives and concepts in Gender Studies, and explores tensions and diverging lines between different approaches to gender and power.
The readings, together with lectures and discussions, will engage with how gender relates to, for example, sex, bodies, sexuality, coloniality, violence and work. Through the specific method of empathic reading this course focuses on reading, understanding and interpreting central themes in the course literature.

The course will be given in English, on campus, from October 2024 to February 2025. Course literature may be due to changes.
