It is with great sadness that I share the unexpected passing of Carl Penziul over the Thanksgiving break. Carl had a decades-long history with Ithaca College.  He taught courses in the Departments of Computer Science and Mathematics and occasionally taught in the Park School of Communications.  Carl also taught in the Ithaca Seminar program for several years and coordinated the Seminar Symposium.  In addition to his varied teaching, Carl was generous with service to Ithaca College, serving on committees even when his position did not require it.

POLT 14100-section 01 CRN 43258

What is power? How is it acquired and maintained? Why individuals and groups comply with or resist power? How is it distributed along the lines of race, gender, and class? How do we reproduce relations of power in our daily lives? This course introduces some of the major theoretical perspectives on power, reading some of the foundational texts of political theory with the interdisciplinary works of critical-race, feminist, and socialist scholars. Treating intersectionality as a method of analysis, we explore how racism, patriarchy, and capitalism relate to one another. We problematize their impact on the contemporary practices of citizenship, democracy, violence, and security. We also discuss to what extent these “-isms” dominate our own political imagination, and how we contribute to power relations that we problematize. The course material serves the practical purpose of better understanding, interpreting, and navigating our political environment.
