Seminar on Human Dimensions of Environmental Change (3)
This nature and society seminar is the foundational course for the
graduate certificate. It is designed to provide students with a survey of
theories and concepts in environmental studies. The course examines how
perspectives and arguments of oft-cited theorists (e.g. Foucault, Haraway,
Marx) have been taken up in nature-society scholarship in geography,
anthropology, development studies, environmental studies, and other
disciplines. To do so, students read selected writings from social theorists as
well as empirical applications, making sense of writing and concepts through
collective discussion and debate.
