About the course
Human differences are constructed and represented in different ways in social and cultural contexts. The aim of the course is to understand and analyze social differences related to ethnicity, race, gender, class and disability, through a range of theoretical and ethnographic perspectives. The course also addresses how differences between researchers and research participants can be understood and managed. During the course, you will reflect on processes for documenting and representing differences both visually and in text.
