Anthropologists have argued that globalization is a set of heterogeneous projects and processes, and that these projects and processes are constituted within different historical moments and/or from different sociocultural locations. Using two examples from the list below, discuss the production of particular concepts of globalization (hint: “concepts” such as the proletariat world, late capitalism, neoliberalism, minor transnationalism, colonialism, etc). Your discussion should 1)utilize and build on lectures, readings and/or films and 2)take into consideration the production and reproduction of differences and inequalities (for example, cultural, racial, economic, political and/or gender differences).
A. China’s engagement with Africa
B. Changing ideas of gender (hint: motherhood, consumer identity, sexuality)
C. The identity of “primitives” “third-world people” and “indigenous people”
D. Health and medicine
