This course considers the history of the world since 1945. Topics to be explained include, but are not limited to, the Cold War, the end of colonial empires, the rise of Islamic nationalism and fundamentalism, the creation and growth of the European Union, the United States as a superpower, the rise of China, and the fall of the Soviet Empire.
The Civil War is often called the Second American Revolution; as much as the first, it formed and shaped the country. A subtitle of this course might be “The Civil War in Blood and Memory”; we will consider how the real war came and how it was fought, and then how Americans have interpreted it since. Did slavery alone cause the war? What was the war ABOUT? And what was the experience of war and battle for the millions who fought? And for the political and military commanders whose decisions shaped the outcome? The primary focus is on the military campaigns and their political and diplomatic contexts. The course grade is based on a major research project chosen by the student and developed with the help of the instructor.
The class examines a wide variety of topics including Ancestral Africa, the evolution of the institution of slavery, the slave trade, American Revolution, The Civil Rights Movement, The Great Depression, African American resistance, the critics of slavery, the free black population and other topics will be covered.
