About
The field of Labor Studies encompasses scholarship and teaching about work, workers and their organizations across many disciplines. From unions and organized labor, to the often unpaid caring labor taking place at home, Labor Studies is broadly conceived to include working men and women everywhere.
The Labor Studies minor brings together a series of courses on labor in core social-science departments. It provides students an interdisciplinary program of study focusing on the importance of labor to the economic, social, political, and cultural evolution of modern societies.

Credits: 5
Department: History
Quarter Offered: Autumn 2012

Description: Students in this class will participate in an historical research project that is documenting the history of struggles for racial and economic justice in the Seattle area. The civil rights movement in Seattle started well before the celebrated struggles in the South in the 1950s and the Seattle movement relied not just on African American activists, but also Filipino Americans, Japanese Americans, Chinese Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans. It also depended upon the support of some elements of the region's labor movement. From the 1910s through the 1970s, labor and civil rights were linked in complicated ways, with some unions and radical organizations providing critical support to struggles for racial justice, while others blocked access to jobs and obstructed struggles for equal rights.

HSTAA 185 - Introduction to Latin American History: From Columbus to Castro
Credits: 5
Department: History of the Americas
Quarter Offered: Summer 2012
Instructor: Prof. Ileana M. Rodriguez Silva
Description: The multiple regions and peoples comprised under the rubric of "Latin America" or the "Caribbean" are too vast and complex to cover in any survey course. Facing this insurmountable task, we can only aspire to gain an overview of significant historical processes that have marked the individuals and communities inhabiting and passing through these varied landscapes. The first and longest unit focuses on the workings and reproduuction of colonial society. We will uncover how Portuguese and Spanish imperial agents sought to economically exploit and morally/culturally shape the lives of native communities, African slaves, colonizers of various backgrounds, and their racially mixed offspring. By the same token, we will pay special attention to the myriad of ways in which peoples challenged, subverted, or simply negotiated in their everyday life the regimes of rule imposed upon them. In the remaining units, we will focus on the tribulations of building modern nation-states out of colonized territories. Like colonial subjugation, the "nation" was another fiction to organize power and has led to continuous struggles - often, violent ones - about the terms of inclusion and exclusion. The serach for the "modern," later the need for "development," and recently the call for free trade in a global market have legitimized the continued subjugation of large sectors of the Indigneous, black, and female populations and have unleashed severe social upheavals. These conflicts remain at the heart of present-day social movements in these regions.
