ANTH 970F - Culture Clash: Ethnographic Case Studies in Contemporary Great Britain

Semester Offered: Second Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 Credits
Attribute: 4SS

Today’s Great Britain, and Europe more broadly, is becoming increasingly diverse in terms of race, culture, religion, and national origin. Defining what it means to be English or European is an exercise that faces particular challenges in the present multicultural moment. Through ethnographic case studies grounded in people’s lived experiences and their particular constructions of identity in Great Britain, we will examine these issues, focusing on themes of race, class, gender, and religion. Field trips required.
