Durham: Duke University Press, it is far less common to, syllabi read as texts. Syllabi used in this analysis include those accessed via larger resource sites but also included numerous individual web searches for more current syllabi. Rather than cite individual syllabi or even individual institutional online syllabi collections, I invite readers to survey some of the larger resource sites, such as the National Women's Studies Association's syllabi collections

Syllabi are an extremely rich source of material and a rarely tapped archive. Although some scholars have discussed syllabi within the general register of curriculum or referred to as part of their larger analysis (see Chandra Mohanty, Feminism without Borders: Decolonizing Theory, Practicing Solidarity [Durham: Duke University Press, 2003]), it is far less common to see syllabi read as texts. Syllabi used in this analysis include those accessed via larger resource sites but also included numerous individual web searches for more current syllabi. Rather than cite individual syllabi or even individual institutional online syllabi collections, I invite readers to survey some of the larger resource sites, such as the National Women's Studies Association's syllabi collections, www.nwsa.org/research/publications/index.php;
