2025 Winter Regular Semester
ANTHR150/Lecture/A - Race and Racism in the Modern World | Credits 3.00
This course will study the challenge of racism in modern societies and the response of anthropology, including the history of how the 'race' concept has been used to explain human variation. Topics will include multiculturalism, ethnic (or cultural) identity, prejudice, ethnocentrism, 'silent' and 'overt' racism, eugenics, and the persistence of ethnic identity in the face of globalization. Case studies from different parts of the world (rural and urban, in times of war and of peace) will be used to define and illustrate these concepts, including current issues of interest in Canada. This course will include a combination of lectures, readings, films and guest speakers.
