Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
The main goal of this course is to train participants to be able to analyze the role of gender in economic outcomes, relations, and processes. While no background in economics is required, the class focuses on the ways in which gender matters in different aspects of the economy. Students will study the gender aspects of economic phenomena such as wage, income, and wealth gaps; intergenerational persistence; economic development; comparative economic systems; the care economy and household economics; and identity in the economy, among others. The theory and work done in feminist economics will also be an important part of the class.Along with mastery of the content, the course also aims to help develop students' academic abilities, including reading, writing, and discussing academic texts, as well as presenting and teaching. The course should help students build the skills to write a successful master's thesis.

The course will meet seven times, for three hours each. In the first two sessions, the instructor will lecture. In the following sections, student groups will lead the class on a particular topic which will be arranged in the first two weeks of class. These student-led sessions should be thought of as an opportunity for students to teach their peers what they have learned about the topic.Along with leading the class session dedicated to a particular topic, students will write a research paper discussing the main points in the relevant literature. This work should be based on extensive research of academic literature.Each week, all students will be required to read a relevant text assigned by the instructor. Twice in the semester, students must write individual short response papers to these texts. Finally, each group will serve as a discussant to another group's paper and presentation.All work may be completed in German or English.
