Instructor | | CRM/LAW (F09) | 289B THEORIES OF ABOLITION | HAN, SORAYA | This seminar will examine key theoretical writings attending the
political history of abolitionism in the United States. Organized
around three abolitionist moments -- the movement to end slavery in
the mid-19th century, the mid-20th century movement challenging Jim
Crow segregation, and the contemporary prison abolition movement --
the seminar will engage literatures in the fields of criminology,
sociology, philosophy, feminist theory and cultural studies. Engaging
scholars such as Karl Marx, Frederick Douglass, Michel Foucault,
Thomas Mathiesen, Angela Davis and Joy James, we will be concerned
with using the analytical categories of race, class and gender to
elaborate on radical criminology's critiques of prison reform, and
ultimately, further attempting to articulate non-carceral alternatives
to dominant modes of punishment. | | CLT&THY (F09) | 200A IDENTITY & DIFFERNC | SEXTON, J. | No description is currently available.

Feminist postcolonial theory has emerged in the academy over the last two
or so decades as an important analytic for cultural and social research.
Beginning in the 1980's as an examination of "colonial discourse,"
influenced by Edward Said's Orientalism and also responding to question of
difference in feminism, it has continued to investigate the problematic of
difference in relation to other colonialisms than the European, and to
disciplines that extend from literary studies to political science to legal
studies. This course will survey three decades of postcolonial feminist
theory through its most important debates and contributors as well as its
critics.
