ANTH 424 - Queer Anthropology3 Credit Hours
Queer anthropology, a field that was established out of various older fields in the discipline – anthropology of gender, anthropology of sexuality, lesbian and gay anthropology – emerged as a response to calls in other disciplines to move beyond binaries and dichotomies, identities, categories, and assumptions of fixity in order to study gender and sexuality in ways that can establish new understandings of the relationship between the two concepts as well as their relation to wider fields – the political, the social, the cultural, and the economic. Within this response was an emergence of many queer ethnographies that detailed the worlds of queerness in multiple spaces, places, and locales. In this course, we will be reading and discussing queer ethnographic texts as well as samples from other genres and disciplines in order to think queerly about the world.
