Course Information
Description
This course is about what “social theory” is, how to read it, and how it relates to the discipline of anthropology. The course encourages students to think expansively about the sources and boundaries of “theory,” guiding them through diverse approaches to the theorization of social life. The course will tackle the study of these approaches in three ways: by relating them to the philosophical traditions that they engage, by situating them within the political projects in which they operate and by analyzing the anthropological insights they enable.
