Annotation
In this course, the student will trace the historical relationship between the earliest days of feminist interaction with the peace movement in which feminists have attempted to create (a) better future(s). We will discuss feminist involvement in anti-slavery campaigns to anti-nuclear arms protests and from prohibition to utopian visions of the future. This course will pay particular attention to feminist philosophical discussions about time, peace, and gender (including gender roles). Finally, we will look at imagined feminist futures through their most often visible lens: science-fiction literature and utopia/dystopia
