SSJ 30327 - Ideologies of Race in Development

This course explores the inherent silences in development discourse regarding “race”. We will explore how the colonial projects of civilizing the “primitives” was primarily a racial project that continues into modern day development. We synthesize historical, political, and anthropological approaches to examine how the beliefs in “racial” hierarchies dominated the ideologies of social evolution, eugenics, the missionary project, colonialism, slavery, and current international development. We will also explore how this racial discourse was appropriated by global resistance movements. This is a graduate and advanced undergraduate (juniors and seniors) seminar course.

Formerly IDCE 30327. Students who have already passed IDCE 30327 cannot receive credit for SSJ 30327 and should not take this course.
