The course is an introduction to scholarship that discusses how gender and sexuality have shaped global politics in the past, and how the category gender is an integral element of contemporary global debates today. The course offers the student a robust understanding of the scholarship that views debates about contemporary phenomena such as migration, development aid, homonationalism and anti-gender movement through gender.

Theoretical debates are introduced through empirical case studies addressing various world regions such as Europe, the Middle East, the United States and the African continent.
