Feminist Theories and Methodologies

Provides a critical analysis of varieties of feminist theories and methodologies as they have been derived from women's examination of social relations and practices. Theories arise from and organize perspectives of the world that generate and legitimate particular understandings. In questioning the process of theorizing, issues of difference in race, class, able-bodied and sexual orientation will be examined. Prerequisite: Students must have successfully completed 84 credits.
