HIST 2207 - World History Since 1945

Rationalizations for World War II and the debates of the Cold War shaped the world as we know it today socially, politically, and economically. This course takes a global perspective on changes in relationships among countries, between different groups of people, race and gender, economic backgrounds, etc. The specific events and areas under study will vary with the professor, but students will examine these changes through various primary and secondary sources and different forms of data, such as demographic, development, and economic studies. 3 credits.
