Fall 2017 Courses GSWS 208-3 Diagnosing Difference: Race and Gender in Global Medical Perspective Mondays: 14:30 – 17:20 Coleman Nye Are certain diseases more common in some racial groups? Do women and men really have different brains? This course explores this how race and gender are defined and diagnosed within medical knowledge systems, health technologies, and clinical practices in different cultural and historical contexts. We will examine how forms of social difference and political inequality impact health global outcomes; how medical technologies – from the spirometer to the speculum – are connected to changing social understandings of race and gender; the ways that doctors’ understandings of social differences inform their approach to the research and treatment of disease in different populations; the place of race and gender in medical training in global contexts; and the role of patients and publics in shaping medicine from AIDS activism to stem cell research.

GSWS 320-4 ST: Gender, Ethnicity, and the Politics of Fitness Culture Wednesdays: 17:30 – 21:20 (Harbour Centre)

Joy Walcott-Francis

Consider the following sport “moments”: the persistence of sex-testing that targets female athletes; US athletes kneeling during the national anthem to demonstrate support for the Black Lives Matter movement; continued efforts to change racist team names and mascots; disputes over inequitable resource allocations for men’s and women’s teams; protests in Brazil during the World Cup and Rio Olympics. Analyzing these disparate examples requires asking how relations of power inhabit and become manifest in sport: in its institutions, spaces, media coverage, and popular discourse. This course addresses this and related questions to interrogate the social investment in sport as a “neutral” site where athletic excellence is performed and consumed.

GSWS 333-4 ST: RWW Adv Seminar: Critical Nonsexualities

Tuesdays: 8:30 – 12:20

Ela Przybylo

Critical Nonsexualities will provide students with the opportunity to explore the erotic currents of nonsexual forms of relating and their challenge to thinking sexuality studies today. While sexuality studies and queer theory have tended to centralize sex as a dominant mode of intimate relating and resistance, this course will both (a) explore the nonsexual and asexual traces of feminist and queer thinking on sexuality as well as (b) focus on literatures specifically attuned to nonsexual and asexual erotic modes as they intersect with compulsory sexuality, religiosity, gender, ability, race and racism, settler colonialism, transnationalism, mononormativity, and other systems of power.

GSWS 399-4 Gender, Sex and Numbers (Q)

Fridays: 9:30 – 13:20

Tiffany Muller Myrdahl

In an era when “Big Data” rules, a critical engagement with the production, collection, and analysis of data (of all kinds) is ever important. This course examines the how and why of quantitative data from a feminist perspective. Students will be introduced to quantitative measurements and their uses, especially within social justice movements and policy circles. With an emphasis on feminist empiricist and critical quantitative methods like stats-n-action, students will make use of basic statistical concepts and methods and conduct basic census and survey data analysis. Through an exploration of topics like smart cities, economic justice, population change, and tools used to address urban liveability (safety, housing, transit), students will learn to interpret and evaluate quantitative data.
