Cultural anthropologists seek to understand the diversity of human experience, focusing on a set of central issues: how people around the world make their living (subsistence patterns); how they organize themselves socially, politically and economically; how they communicate; how they relate to each other through marriage, family and kinship ties; what they believe about the world (religion and belief systems); how they express themselves creatively (the arts and expressive culture); how they make distinctions among themselves; how they have shaped and been shaped by the past; and how they navigate culture change and processes of globalization. Ethnographic case studies highlight these similarities and differences, and introduce students to how anthropologists do their work, employ professional anthropological research ethics and apply their perspectives and skills to understand humans around the globe.

Students will be exposed to the great variety of ways humans communicate both verbally and non-verbally. Using specific cross-cultural examples, the class will survey three core areas in linguistic anthropology: Structural Linguistics, which focuses on phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics; Historical linguistics, which focuses on origins and evolution of language, the development of language over time including its changes, variations, and language loss; and Sociolinguistics, which focuses on language acquisition in a cultural context, how culture shapes language, and the intersection of language and systems of power.(A, CSU, UC, Cal-GETC)

Together, we’ll look at the building blocks of language, including sounds, words, and structures, and examine how they work in real communication situations. Students will also practice describing language in a clear and systematic way, gaining tools to better understand both their own language use and the way others use language. (A, CSU, UC, Cal-GETC)

Students will learn the various ways religion is lived and practiced in diverse cultures, the relationship between religious behavior and other domains of culture, and the role of religious beliefs in human experiences of health and healing. Anthropological theories of religion will be covered using specific forms, functions, and expressions of belief systems and ritual within their cultural contexts. With an emphasis on small-scale societies and communities, this course uses local perspectives as well as cross-cultural understandings to explore the variations of religious rituals and beliefs, immeasurable beings and powers, sacred stories and symbols, religious roles and practitioners, religious healing and medical systems, concepts of the body, birth, death, and religious change.

Surveys the economic, historical, and social influences upon these representations from early cinema to the present, focusing on both images of women onscreen and influences of women behind the scenes. Analyzes women's filmmaking, images of masculinity, the male gaze, and various "screen sexualities" and other representations of women. Introduces a variety of film theories and analytical perspectives. (A, CSU, UC, Cal-GETC)

Students will continue to interact with authentic language in context. Content is expanded beyond “survival” needs of the immediate environment in order to express personal meaning and to apply different strategies and techniques to go beyond casual conversation and express opinions, make suggestions on familiar topics, as well as some abstract issues and plans. Students demonstrate an increased awareness of cultural norms, values, and culturally relevant appropriate customs and events. Accuracy becomes quite high for high frequency structures and vocabulary, but more complex discourse is still developing and requires a somewhat sympathetic listener or reader. Students will demonstrate the ability to think critically by analyzing linguistic structures and reflecting on and making cross-cultural comparisons. This course will be taught in French.

Together, we’ll look at the building blocks of language, including sounds, words, and structures, and examine how they work in real communication situations. Students will also practice describing language in a clear and systematic way, gaining tools to better understand both their own language use and the way others use language. (A, CSU, UC, Cal-GETC)

What does it mean to be human? How can God coexist with evil? What is the evidence for God's existence anyway? Do we have free will or are our thoughts and actions determined by forces outside our control? What is your mind? Is it nothing more than activity in your brain, or is your mind a soul? What is a soul, and are there good reasons to think souls are real? What is knowledge, why is it valuable, and how can you tell when you have it? Can we know anything with certainty, and does that matter? This class will provide an opportunity to explore these and similar questions, in conversation with texts from some of the greatest minds in human history. (A, CSU, UC, Cal-GETC)

The class engages in examination of theoretical approaches to politics, of fundamental problems that arise in political contexts, and of proposed solutions to those problems. Students will analyze the relevance of political theory to contemporary political problems. (A, CSU, UC, Cal-GETC)

Students will continue to interact with authentic language in context. Content is expanded beyond “survival” needs of the immediate environment in order to express personal meaning and to apply different strategies and techniques to go beyond casual conversation and express opinions, make suggestions on familiar topics, as well as some abstract issues and plans. Students demonstrate an increased awareness of cultural norms, values, and culturally relevant appropriate customs and events. Accuracy becomes quite high for high frequency structures and vocabulary, but more complex discourse is still developing and requires a somewhat sympathetic listener or reader. Students will demonstrate the ability to think critically by analyzing linguistic structures and reflecting on and making cross-cultural comparisons. This course will be taught in Spanish.
