This is an eight-week syllabus for upper-undergraduate and postgraduate students. It aims to give students an advanced grounding in the political sociology of gender and violence, exploring how gender-based violence operates within the intersecting systems of heteropatriarchy and colonial racial capitalism and engaging in critical conversations about how initiatives to end gender-based violence can dismantle oppressive systems rather than strengthening them.

The resource consists of a reading list, discussion prompts for teaching sessions and multimedia links, in PDF format. If you use the syllabus and would like me to do a guest session with your students (perhaps via Zoom) then do contact me at alison.phipps@newcastle.ac.uk. I'd love to chat with them!
