ANTH 250 - Beyond Human Nature
Credits: 4
In Beyond Human Nature students participating in the Source Project will build upon the research they conducted in the fall semester where we questioned common sense assumptions about human nature said to derive from our evolutionary past. We will continue to evaluate the evidence related to race, sex and gender, health, and other biocultural concepts to question and understand what they truly mean for modern Western ideas about how it is natural for people to act and live. Students will further refine their research projects and adapt their presentations to different audiences, including peer researchers and the general public. Restricted to participants in the Source Project. Prerequisite: ANTH 150.

ANTH 252 - People Of The Pacific
Credits: 4
The Pacific was the last major region of the globe to be colonized by humans.

ANTH 315 - Language Race and Ethnicity
Credits: 4
The objective of this course is to critically examine the role of language use as it plays out in the construction of ethnic and racial identities in our everyday lives. What is race? What is ethnicity? How is racial identity allocated and constructed in our society? How can race be exclusionary or inclusionary in our speech events’ How does racialized discourse manifest itself not just overtly but covertly? These and many other questions will be addressed throughout the semester. After defining race and ethnicity, and examining theoretical issues on race and ethnicities, we will critically analyze the use of popular slogans such as colorblindness, multiculturalism, post-racial, and so forth, as they are used in everyday speech in the US and in Europe, in the popular media, and on the Internet. We will then explore the linguistic construction of ethnic and racial identities through a close analysis of linguistic practices in our society. By the end of the semester, we will then be able to investigate the way we talk about race and racism in an attempt to better understand the (re)production of racialized and racist discourses. In this course, besides sharpening their analytical thinking on these key issues, students will acquire a critical awareness of the way racism may operate through discourse. or similar introducotry course.

-
ANTH 316 - Language and Globalization
Credits: 4
The objective of this course is to explore globalization and its effects on language use in society and culture. The societies we live in are fundamentally defined by processes of globalization that permeate all aspects of human life and culture. To observers of modernity, globalization centrally involves not only unprecedented flows of people, goods, and money, but also discourses, images, all kinds of symbols, and profound changes in communication technologies. For this reason, metaphors of movement and flow are becoming prevailing frames to understand these new realities. These changes and developments have been the object of close scrutiny by linguists, sociolinguists and linguistic anthropologists in the past decade. Sociocultural approaches to language need to take into consideration these new dimensions of social life in late modernity to produce adequate understandings of language in use. In this course, we will explore topics including the economic importance of languages in our current globalized world; the paths that languages such as English have taken to reach a global dominance; the marginalization of certain languages in these globalizing processes; and the analysis of certain linguistic situations in which countries hosting a global language might or might not change their official languages to become more globalized. Besides sharpening their critical thinking on these important issues, students will have a better understanding of the way globalization has widened and/or restrained languages around the world. Pre-requisite: ANTH 170 or similar intro course on Language and Culture.
