Class Description:
This is the second of two courses that deal with the history of Europe in the twentieth century. It covers the period from the end of the Second World War to 1991. Emphasis is upon the political and economic recovery of Western Europe, the way in which Europe became divided during the Cold War, the nature of the regimes in Eastern Europe, efforts at European cooperation and integration, changes in society and culture as well as the problems that arose from the division of Europe as a result of great power rivalries. Consideration will be given to the reasons for the division of Europe and the causes for the end of this division in 1990. Readings are around these themes with a text to provide narrative continuity.
