POLI 435. Identity and Inequality.
Credits: 3
Offered by: Political Science (Faculty of Arts)
This course is not offered this catalogue year.
Description
Inequality is often particularly durable between groups whose boundaries are based on assumed ancestry - e.g., the major ethnic categories in former European settler colonies, castes in South Asia. This course explores ongoing changes in the relationship between identity and social, economic and political inequality in some of these contexts.
