Section Information for Spring 2023

This class will cover critical theories of space and place from a range of theoretical and disciplinary traditions (including but not limited to cultural studies, Indigenous studies, Black studies, cultural and political geography, Marxian traditions, legal studies, and disability studies). We will approach this field of study through the lens of environmental justice, considering how power, necropolitics, and coloniality are produced in and through different arrangements of space – and how an environmental justice framework can push back against such arrangements.
