- Class Description:
- What were the circumstances that enabled the U. S. to develop into a super-power in the 20th century? How has the U. S. exercised power around the world? How did technological innovations from electricity, to the automobile, to film, to computers and the internet transform daily life, human meaning, and the exercise of state power? How is the recent/current economic crisis like and unlike the Great Depression of the 1930s? How did the Cold War shape the international movement for human rights and rights movements in the U. S. in the 1950s, `60s, and `70s? How did the U.S. and the rest of the world come to depend on oil? What's the relationship between deindustrialization in the U. S. in the 1970s and the development of the global assembly line? How did we move from the end of the Cold War to the War on Terror? How has the development of a global economy changed the experience of everyday life? These are some of the questions we will be asking with three specific goals: to put modern U. S. history (1865-present) in a global context; to provide a historical foundation for understanding the world we live in today; and to engage students in thinking about what history is. Specific topics include: the global significance of the American Civil War; immigration restriction and reform; post-WWII U. S. hegemony; sovereignty, rights movements, and human rights; global revolution and the rise of detente; and life in the digital age. This is a writing intensive course and includes twice-weekly lectures and once a week discussion seminars. Grades will be based on critical analytical essays, quizzes, and seminar participation.
