ANTH 040J. Social Movements in Latin America: Gender & Queer Perspective

Since the 1980s, the contemporary forces of neoliberalism, re-democratization and globalization have profoundly reshaped the societies of Latin America.
Against this backdrop of change, people who have long been politically marginalized-indigenous groups, women, peasants, gays, blacks-have struggled to assert their rights and make their voices heard. In this course we will focus on gender and queer identities in Latin America through a social movement lens.
