Topic title: Apocalypse: Anthropologies of Hope, Fear, and Survival 

Instructor: Dr. Anne Spice

Description: Is this the end of the world? In a culture overwhelmed with fantastical stories of apocalypse, how are we to actually prepare for catastrophe? This course asks us to consider social and political life at the end of the world, to interrogate visions of an apocalyptic future, and to re-orient ourselves toward forms of collective survival. 

Prerequisites: ANT204H5 Sociocultural Anthropology, or permission of the department.
