This interdisciplinary course focuses on the culture of the United States during a specific and short periods of time (1885-1915; 1915-1940; etc). Emphasis is as much on methods of interdisciplinary studies as on the material itself: we'll approach culture through primary sources from a variety of different disciplines: history, sociology, literature, art, architecture, music, film.

This course uses an evolutionary approach to investigate human biological and bio-cultural variation in time and space. Through a study of the basics of population genetics, an evaluation of our closest living relatives, nonhuman primates, and an exploration of the biological and cultural pathways traversed by our ancestors to become modern Homo sapiens, students learn the depth and complexity of the human story. Laboratory exercises dealing with human genetics, hominin fossils, and evolution are integrated with lectures to give students hands-on learning experience. No credit earned if credit received for ANTH 413.

What did Washington, Jefferson, Adams (John and Abigail), Madison and Paine have in common? They were all instrumental in shaping the US political system, but they were also educated in the classics. When building the framework of our democratic republic, they continually looked to Athens and Rome as models, inspirations and warnings. The course examines ancient political systems and how they helped fashion our founder's notion of the ideal government and continue to do so.

How does our culture relate to and talk about people who use drugs? Discussions of the ?opioid epidemic? often rely on models of addiction?the ?moral model,? ?disease model,? and ?psychosocial model??that emerge from a view of individuals as self-contained, without taking social contexts into account. As a result, people who use drugs?especially those who inject drugs?are stigmatized as morally bankrupt, disease-ridden, or psychosocially maladjusted individuals. This course will explore how stigma functions as a byproduct of a system of social relations in which various forms of inequality are reproduced through the discourses around drugs. Through readings, discussions, and assignments, we will pull back the veil on language and social relationships to better understand how we think about ourselves, our social institutions, and what we are capable of doing about substance misuse.
