Gender, War, and Migration

How are war, peace, and "the enemy” gendered and racialized? How do war and conflict impact and complicate belonging and influence the movement of people across borders and boundaries? In this course students will examine and develop a deep understanding of the dynamics of war and its aftermath through a complex intersectional lens of gender, race, sexuality, class, religion, and nation. We will examine U.S. wars and transnational conflicts from a multidisciplinary perspective to better understand how and why conflicts occur and wars are waged across time and place.
