SOCI 4320: Advanced Topics in Global Studies

The themes and topics taken up in SOCI 4320 often change. In this version of the course, students will take a deep dive into the political economy of water. This course will present a radical examination of our relationship with water. It will begin with water geographies in relation to state formation, colonial governmentality and the processes of accumulation by dispossession in the context of capital accumulation – structures and processes through which water inequality in relation to Indigenous Communities originated, is maintained and reproduced in Canada. In this context, this course will address the issue of water exclusion in relation to questions of cultural genocide. Students will also confront contradictions associated with the neoliberalization of water in all its forms, from its most essential biophysical compound (H20) to water and wastewater services and other such water systems and processes. Students will critically examine their own relationship with water and from there explore Indigenous conceptions and understandings of water, the social construction of water (“water is what we make of it” suggests water scholar Jamie Linton), the idea of the human right to water, global governance of water, the increasing commercialization and privatization of water and wastewater systems, the idea of the water commons and water justice movements worldwide resisting the privatization and commodification of water.
