Anthropology 591L - S- Oligarchy

This course is open to students who are engaged or wish to be engaged in organizing for more democratic societies and institutions. The class is offered in conjunction with the Feinberg Family Distinguished Lecture series, which will host talks on the theme of "oligarchy" throughout the academic year. Students will attend (synchronously or asynchronously) 4-5 events in the series. We will meet together to talk about diverse historical and contemporary iterations of and struggles against oligarchy, with an emphasis on how these events might inform our own collective struggles.
