Anthropological Perspectives on Conflict and Violence
Section outline
-
-
This course seeks to familiarize students with anthropological and anthropology-inspired works dealing with different forms of political violence like terrorism, state-sanctioned practices, or racialized violence.
Nonetheless, it does not aim to provide comprehensive and exhaustive overview of the scholarship approaching conflict through anthropological lenses. Rather, by discussing several pertinent themes, the class demonstrates the novel methodological, analytical and theoretical insights that anthropological perspective provides for the students of political violence in particular, and (international) politics in general.
