CUSIS科目資料	Description： Gender is a pivotal aspect of family relationships. The family is a domain where unequal gender relationships between men and women are systematically created and reproduced. As a social institution, the family, through its distribution of resources, division of labour, and perceptions about gender identity, reinforces a hierarchical relationship between men and women in which men are privileged. On the one hand, the family is an important interactive arena for examining how people produce and do gender, and how gender strategies are created in everyday life.  On the other hand, gender is a tool for dissecting the structure of family, its processes, and the outcomes of interactions between its members.  This course aims to investigate the complex links between gender and family from a global perspective. It highlights cultural and national similarities and differences in gender and family relationships, the diversities in state responses to the emerging challenges on gender and family relationships globally, and the rapid development of a globalized discourse of gender equality that is based on calls for universal human rights, on blurring the public and private divide and on challenging the boundaries between family and society. Learning Outcome： Students in this course should study and demonstrate understanding of the interconnection between gender and family in shaping individual life chances, the distribution of resources and power, and the division of roles between the two sexes. Students are also expected to develop a global view on differences and similarities between gender and family across cultures and societies, as well as the diversities in state responses to the emerging challenges on gender and family relationships globally. More generally, students should acquire a set of analytical skills and methods to critically reflect on the concept of gender in contributing to our understanding of societies and cultures; to understand the diversified family formation process, family patterns and practices, the role of evidence and research methods in cross cultural comparative analysis; the role of transferable skills and insights beyond national and cultural boundaries, and the development of global values of human rights and equality for reflecting on the social reality of own society and individual biography, as well as one’s value positions and life choices.
