INST 382 - AFRICAN CULTURES AND COLONIALISM

Hours: 5
A study of African cultures, with emphasis on selected geographic areas and ethnic groups. Focuses on cultural encounters, their effects, and the relationship of culture to human nature by examining precolonial African civilization, the world view of colonizers, the impact of Western colonialism on Africa, and the African recovery of independence. Exploration of several perspectives is encouraged through the use of several disciplines (chosen from among history, literature, religion, political science, sociology, economics, and the arts).
Notes: Course requirements include a writing component and a final project that requires synthesis.
