Ethnic Studies

It was created to give Europeans with a bright-colored skin an advantage to make white races superior and inferior to anyone else. Through that history, the concept of race has successfully achieved this goal. Ancient civilizations practice slavery, but instead of classifying people according to race, they categorize according to other characteristics such as religion and status.

Ethnographic research began with interdisciplinary and comparative studies on ethnic, ethnic, racial and racial discrimination in the United States. Since the late 1960's ethnographic research scholars have studied social justice, identity, and resistance and emphasized the views and experiences of colored people. Studies and education of the UO ethnology department are investigating ways in which the race as a system of governance is closely related to issues such as gender, class, sex, immigration, independence, colonialism. Through our students we will examine the history of white supremacy and the emergence of modern times and explain how dominance systems and resistance actions create ethnic subjects and rebuild them.

Class, sexual orientation and legal status.

Some of our teachers focus on some ethnic groups and geographical areas, others are working relatively internationally.
