Biography
C.K. Magliola joins the Sociology Department as an Instructor of Women’s and Gender Studies Minor. Currently ABD, Clara received her doctoral training in cultural anthropology at the University of California, Irvine. Based on fieldwork conducted in Kingston, Jamaica, her dissertation is entitled "The Politics of Becoming: Nationhood, Childhood, and Postcolonial Development in Contemporary Jamaica." Her analytical specialties include postcolonial theory; the politics of childhood; the politics of reproduction; poverty-alleviation strategies and secular/faith-based humanitarianisms; gender and the family; and feminist theory. With great concern over issues of social justice at the local and global level, Clara employs a feminist pedagogy in her classroom that relies upon the democratic creation of knowledge, and encourages critical social engagement outside of the classroom.
