SoSe 13: Close Reading: Ethnographies on Gender, Citizenship and Religion in Indonesia

Eric Anton Heuser

Comments

This seminar is designed as a close reading course of new ethnographies on Indonesia. In particular, the course will focus on works that address the intersections of gender, religion, and citizenship in the cultural context of the Indonesian nation-state. The first sessions of the class introduce the medium of the “ethnography” as a methodological tool to present long term stationary anthropological fieldwork. The knowledge gained in those sessions will provide the theoretical frame to analyse the ethnographies that will be read in the reminder of the class. By referring to works like “Gender Diversity in Indonesia: Sexuality, Islam and Queer Selves: Beyond Gender Binaries” by Sharyn Graham Davis, “A coincidence of desires” by Tom Boellstorff, and “Falling into the Lesbi World” by Evelyn Blackwood, students will explore the diversity of gender constructs in postcolonial Indonesia as well their relationship to political discourses. close
