Teaching: Sikhism

The courses focusing on Sikhism include:

Sikhism (RS 162C) is a lecture course in which we trace the development of the Sikh community from its founding in the 1520s to its modern manifestation as a powerful religious minority in India.

The Sikh Tradition (RS 213A) is a graduate seminar in which we use primary sources in translation to discuss the evolution of Sikh religious life from the community’s inception in the 1520s to the present.

Courses such as Mark Juergensmeyer’s, Global Religions (GS 102), Global Terrorism (GS 134), Religious Nationalism (GS 200), and Gurinder Singh Mann’s Global Diasporas and Cultural Change (GS 104) examine issues relating to Sikhism and Punjab.
