Expanded Course Description
Citizenship, race, ethnicity and nationality are legal constructions. Belonging to a community is a social and cultural construction. This course takes an interdisciplinary approach to study the way in which the American legal order has constituted citizenship. Students will be encouraged to scrutinize their ideas about culture, religion, "race" and sexuality, and the ways that the laws of citizenship has interfaced with and reinforced these categories. We will examine the cultural dimensions of law in relationship to forms of power and governance. Readings are drawn from anthropology, history, politics, sociology and geography to trace the relationship between legal systems and societal practices and beliefs.
