ANTH-E 386: PERFORMANCE, CULTURE AND POWER IN THE MIDDLE EAST AND NORTH AFRICA (3 credits)

About

Middle Eastern cultures are well known for their rich and diverse performance practices. Taking an ethnographic perspective, this course views performances as communicative events through which social relations are organized. It explores how performances both participate in local arrangements of power and constitute responses to colonialism, nationalism, and globalization.
