Cross listed with 50:988:299. This course will take an anthropological look at the paid and unpaid work that women and men perform in Western and non-Western cultures around the world, including the United States. The course will analyze the effects of gender on the work people do, and its rewards, hardships, and implications for family living. It will also consider how people’s race, ethnicity, and class profoundly affect the shape of male and female labor. It will ask how work roles have varied throughout history, and how current economic and technological changes are affecting equality between women and men, here and abroad. We will examine historical and cultural context, empirical research findings, and theoretical developments as we study issues relevant to understanding women’s and men’s work experiences.

In this course we will examine the various ways that children and childhood have been discussed, researched and understood from the perspective of a variety of academic disciplines such as sociology, anthropology, history, law and education. We will explore the questions: What is a child? What is childhood? We will discuss the ways that ideas about children and childhood both connect to and differ from the lived experiences of actual children, highlighting the ways childhoods differ in various contexts. We will use both historical and contemporary materials to explore issues central to children and childhood including school, work, children’s rights and children’s agency.

Email:jsmru@camden.rutgers.edu
This course will consider the ways in which children are portrayed and childhoods are constructed in American and British books for young audiences. Using the children’s picture book as the foundation of a historical look at the child and the genre, this class will trace the ways both the genre and constructions of children and childhood have developed over time, giving students an understanding of the history of the genre, as well as how criteria used to judge “the best” literature for children developed. By the end of this course, students will understand the complex nature of the books themselves and the process by which they navigate adult channels on their way into children’s hands.

Email:stbernar@camden.rutgers.edu
How, if at all, are children sexual? This course explores what emerges when childhood and sexuality - two seemingly antithetical phenomena - intersect. By focusing on contemporary discourses of childhood and sexuality, this course introduces students to new and emergent literature in the fields of childhood studies, sexuality studies, queer studies, and related social science disciplines. Questions of sexual health, ethics, risk, and desire will “haunt” class discussions as students examine depictions of the sexual child in literature and film alongside accounts of children’s lived experiences of sexuality. This course will also consider global constructions of childhood and sexuality, allowing us to be critically attentive to how these ideas converge with understandings of race, ethnicity, gender, and nationhood.

Special Topics:The Rational Child (Cr.3)

Whether celebrated or shunned, commercial or religious, Christmas is an inescapable cultural phenomenon both in the US and abroad. This course examines the cultural production of Christmas historically, as religious festival, and as commercial event as it is experienced and performed by children. Students will embark on a multi-disciplinary study of the holiday--its history, music, movies, literature, Santa, cookies--and develop an understanding of how children around the world are impacted by, and impact and re-create, adult celebrations of the season.

Prerequisite: working knowledge of the Spanish Language, 50:940:102 minimum. In recognition of the demands of the South Jersey area, this course is designed to advance the linguistic skills and professional qualifications of individuals with a medium and/or advanced level of Spanish. Professional interpreters are increasingly in demand in courts, hospitals, and service agencies, as well as in legal and administrative offices. Advanced speakers of Spanish and heritage speakers, are often asked (formally and informally) to act as translators by their family members and/or employers even though this is a highly-specialized discipline that requires specific training. This course will provide students with a minimum knowledge of the task and the profession to allow them to perform these duties more effectively. It will also equip them to develop their skills further in the 300-level courses on medical, business and legal translation that will be offered in upcoming semesters.

Satisfies the History/Religion/Philosophy General Requirement. In this seminar-style course we will consider the ongoing memory of the American Civil War. Over 150 years since its eruption, this seminal national moment continues to stand as the crossroads of our history. The sacrifice, suffering, and glory engendered by this fratricidal conflict capture the imagination of millions of Americans as evidenced by the millions of visitors to national parks, the innumerable published works, and legions of historical re-enactors which keep its memory alive. The Civil War defined and re-defined questions of federal and state authority, slavery and freedom, the fate of western lands, medical science, and even taxation. Yet in spite of all the change it wrought, there are those today who would suggest that it is still, in some ways, being fought. This course will examine the ways that Americans have searched for meaning in their Civil War, and how they have remembered it and even re-fought its underlying battles in their culture. There will be no exams in this course. Students will be evaluated upon two criteria: 1) a series of short papers addressing a host of assigned readings and films and 2) informed class performance.

Satisfies the History/Religion/Philosophy General Requirement. In this seminar-style course, we will focus on the United States between 1941 and 1991. The Cold War, an era characterized by the superpower standoff between the United States and the former Soviet Union, provides a fruitful subject for cultural analysis. The focus of our exploration of this era will be the social and cultural changes wrought by atomic weapons and the threat of Communist expansion both abroad and at home. Such phenomena as television, suburbia, science fiction, rock and roll, the Civil Rights movement and the counter-culture are just a few of the trends and processes that emerged during these years. There will be no exams in this course. Students will be evaluated upon two criteria: 1) a series of short reaction papers and book reviews addressing essays and novels from, or about, the period and 2) class performance/participation. We will also have a lot of fun examining and discussing films, television programs, and commercial ads from the period which serve as rich primary source documents of how Americans processed the changing and threatening world around them.

The 9/11 Commission of 2004 confirmed initial government assessments that the 2001 attacks were carried out by Al Qaeda, an Islamist extremist group. Soon after the attacks, however, and ever since, revisionists have challenged the official findings. While controversy remains over the question of why the U.S. was attacked on 9/11, (some maintain it was justified retribution for U.S. foreign policy while others argue the attacks stemmed from a revivalist fundamentalism within Islam) 9/11 revisionism centers on the who and the how. This course will rely on critical thinking skills to evaluate both the 9/11 Commission Report as well as the arguments of its critics.
