3 Credit Hours
Prerequisites: ANTH 2010, ANTH 2020, or ANTH 2030 with grade of C or higher, or consent of instructor.
Description
Drawing on three subfields of anthropology (biological anthropology, archaeology, and sociocultural anthropology), this course takes a holistic approach to the study of violence. The course fosters critical thinking through writing, and it promotes the understanding of how scholarly-scientific and popular interpretations of violence are rooted in the ideological paradigms of their time. Serves as one of the two Critical Thinking Through Writing (CTW) courses required of all anthropology majors.
