Course Description

The nature of this coursean examination of the relations among law and culture and genderrequires you to be proactive, rather than reactive, to the subject. Each term accounts for a multitude of phenomena, abstract conceptions, and representations. Each one of you will define the relationship and the individual components of that relationship in your own way because each one of you experiences law, culture and gender in response to a set of specific circumstances. Race, ethnicity, class, religion, sexual preference, historical circumstance are but a few of the characteristics that affect the way you experience the intersection of these three terms.
