POL 510
The Politics of Sexual Diversity
This course begins with an examination of homosexuality and heterosexuality as social constructs; examines the politicisation of sexual diversity and identity; and explores the place of diverse sexual identities in heterosexist society. Particular attention will be given to the way in which selected public policies (some Canadian; some in other jurisdictions) are influenced (or not) by recognition of sexual minorities. (POL 510 is not available for credit to students who choose SWP 910.)
