The MA in Gender Studies (Middle East Pathway) offers a critical analysis of prevailing narratives surrounding gender and sexuality in the Middle East, presenting alternative perspectives on gender norms and sexual practices in this frequently misrepresented area.
Utilizing insights from Middle Eastern gender and sexuality research, the program delves into both historical and modern examinations of gender relations across the region. Beyond simply studying Middle Eastern contexts, students will be prompted to recognize the area as a source of theoretical innovation.
This course advocates moving beyond simplistic, culturally deterministic views of the Middle East, instead investigating the social frameworks that shape regional identities and lifestyles. It emphasizes local perspectives, amplifying indigenous voices to question the dominance of Western academic traditions.
