Intersectionality and Superdiversity

Uitgebreide vaknaam	Intersectionality and Superdiversity
Leerdoelen	Upon successful completion of the course unit, students are able to: 1. differentiate key debates and concepts in intersectionality and superdiversity studies 2. assess the relevance of broader historical processes for the intersection of minority identities 3. analyse the intersections of ethnolinguistic minority identities and other categories of difference (such as race, class, gender and sexuality) from a historical, contemporary and/or global perspective utilising a small case; 4. Interpret current societal debates on intersectionality and superdiversity utilising media and academic sources 5. analyse a properly delineated research topic concerning intersectionality and/or superdiversity by way of a literature review and analysis of source material.
Omschrijving	In the first block of this course you are introduced to the fields of intersectionality and superdiversity, with a particular focus on how ethnolinguistic minority identities may intersect with other identities, such as racial identities, class identities or LGBTQIA+ identities. We will discuss histories of separate minority identities, as well as theories and histories of intersectionality and superdiversity. Theories and histories are taught in conjunction, because social circumstances, social movements, and theory often feed into each other. The knowledge acquired in the first block is assessed by way of an exam In the second block, you are asked to utilise your knowledge of intersectionality and superdiversity to analyse patterns of inclusion and exclusion both of and within ethnolinguistic minority communities, relating those patterns to issues of class, race, gender and sexuality, and placing them in larger contexts of nationalisms, colonialism, religion, citizenship and migration. You do so by preparing in-class discussions, and through a presentation, taking into account media and academic sources on the topic of the week. Moreover, you write a paper.
