We will draw on debates regarding concepts such as globalization, capitalism, markets, nationhood, governance and citizenship and use various ethnographic case studies from different parts of the world to highlight different aspects of these debates.
Instead of looking at ‘the global’ and ‘local’ as fixed divides, we will examine how the movement of capital and ideas, people and commodities, operate at multi-scalar levels and how they strengthen or weaken social inequalities; the sovereignty of states and markets; and the boundaries of cultural identities and nationhood.
Students who follow this course will develop:
• A basic knowledge of anthropological and sociological conceptual debates regarding key concepts discussed in the course.
• academic skills necessary to analyze processes of global-local interaction, the movement of ideas, people and things through different types of borders and boundaries and modes of governmentality and resistance
• basic methodologies within the framework of global ethnographies
• knowledge to connect issues that are politically relevant and urgent in the current world situation with local day-to-day events-
