ID 287 / IDCE 381 - Critical Cartographies: Mapping Culture, History, and Power
This interdisciplinary seminar explores the political and cultural effects of cartographic projects in different colonial and post-colonial settings. The first half of the course focuses on the role map-making technologies have played in these projects, while the second half directs attention on a series of case-studies. These include: state formation, the management of mobile populations, the creation of political forests, and the re-territoralization of sovereignty following the neo-liberal turn, among others. The course is open to advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students by permission of instructor.
