This course deals with feminist theory and differences within feminist theorizing. Taking
departure from a variety of feminist approaches, the course will address questions such as: What is gender, and what are feminist perspectives?
How have feminists theorized and understood the relationship between gender and power, and other intersecting categories?
The course is divided into three broad themes: 1) sex and gender, 2) feminism and sexuality 3) feminism and coloniality. These themes will be explored through classical texts, lectures, seminar discussions, pedagocial exercises and individual written assignments.
