AFST 100 Ethics and Human Rights in Africa 6 credits
Human rights in Africa, as in many parts of the world, are often very contentious. No one denies the need for human rights. What people contest is the form these rights take. This course will discuss human rights in Africa as ethical issues. It is important to engage human rights through the prism of ethics because we ought to think about how we relate to other humans and respect their dignity and the right to be who they are. The class will read insightful texts and engage in animated discussions of issues as they relate to Africa.

ENGL 256 Excavating Histories: Archival Research Methods 6 credits
This course will introduce the fundamentals of working with special collections and archives, including ethical best practices and methods of research and interpretation. Drawing on interdisciplinary scholarship, we will explore questions such as: What constitutes an archive? What motivates people to create and seek out archives? Whose lives and histories have been privileged in the cultivation of archives, and what is being done to address these disparities? What are the limits of archiving as a means of redress? Course work will include in-person visits to collections at Carleton and beyond, as well as research in digitized collections nationwide.
Extra Time Required: Off-campus site visits to meet with community partners.

GWSS 225 Women’s and Gender Studies in Europe Program: Gender and the Biopolitics of Health across Europe
This course investigates the concept of biopolitics and applies intersectional feminist theories to examine how European states control the biological aspects of human life, including birth, health, mortality, and sexuality. It examines how health serves as a domain of power, shaping the lives and well-being of individuals and populations while reinforcing disparities based on race, class, gender, sexuality, and disability. Analyzing the biopolitics of health across different Western and East Central European political systems, case studies include medicalized childbirth, forced sterilization, immigration policies, and LGBT rights. Critical theories of gender, sexuality, and race are central to the course’s analysis. This course is offered at both the 200 and 300 levels; coursework will be adjusted accordingly.

GWSS 244 Women’s & Gender Studies in Europe Program: Ethics and Politics of Cross-Cultural Research
This course explores the following questions: What are the ethics and politics of cross-cultural research? What is the relationship between methodology and knowledge claims in feminist research? What are the power interests involved in keeping certain knowledges marginalized/subjugated? How do questions of gender and sexuality, of ethnicity and national location, figure in these debates? We will also pay close attention to questions arising from the hegemony of English as the global language of WGS as a discipline, and will reflect on what it means to move between different linguistic communities, with each being differently situated in the global power hierarchies.
