Providing students with an introduction to Canadian Studies, "Environment and Care: Canadian Perspectives" focuses on a number of recent developments in Canada through the lens of Environment and Care, which we see as key concepts for a future-oriented and sustainable understanding of different facets of the country: the term "environment" refers not only to air, water, and land in or on which humans, animals, and plants exist, but also to the circumstances, objects, or conditions that surround humans, animals, and plants. The term "care," in turn, implies "everything we do to maintain, continue, and repair our ‘world’ so we can live in it as well as possible. That world includes our bodies, our selves, and our environment, all of which we seek to interweave in a complex, life-sustaining way" (Tronto/Fisher 1990, 40). Offering students a multidisciplinary approach to understanding Canada via the concepts of Environment and Care, the lecture series will specifically engage the following fields: Histories and Politics; Indigenous Contexts; Intersectional Issues; Literatures and Media; Mountain and Glacier Studies; Multiculturalism and Federalism; Urban Visions and Realities.
This class will be run as a Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) class in the Aurora University Alliance. |
