This course takes an inclusive bio-cultural evolutionary perspective on gender, focusing on non-human primate societies as well primitive (small scale) and modern (large scale) human societies. Factors such as culture, ecological conditions and historical circumstances, forces of stratification (e.g. age, social class), socialization (e.g. rites of passage, conformity & deviance) as well as the science (e.g. concepts, theories & methods) of studying these topics will be addressed. Though course readings will represent many disciplines, the foundation readings reflect the perspectives of bio-cultural anthropology as well as sociology. This emphasis addresses the fundamental assumption that the traits that culture assigns and inculcates (with varying degrees of success) in males and females.
Credit may be earned for only one of the following: ANTHR 7 or SOCIO 7.
