HIST 445 - History of Postwar Europe, 1945-Present Credits: 5
This course covers the political, social and economic history of Europe from the end of World War II to the present. We will consider the settlement that ended the war, and the ways in which that settlement affected European identities in the decades that followed. Among the themes we will focus on are: the emergence of the Cold War in a divided Europe, the expansion of U.S. economic influence in Europe, the impact of decolonization, the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the problem of a unified Europe emerging out of distinct national identities.
Prerequisites: None. World civilization II is recommended.
