HIST 303 The Study of Global History 4.0 Credits
This course explores modern global history from the 17th to 21st century, familiarizing students with theories of global history (Annales School, world systems theory) while insisting on bottom up approaches. Taking a transnational perspective, students will follow things, ideas, and people on the move and delve into the spaces enabling such moves (ports, slave markets, caravans, cafes, technological infrastructures, scientific institutions). This course provides an introduction to the critical historiographies in the "global history" concentration within the history B.A.
