Will consider key themes in the history of postwar Europe. We will explore Europe’s division and ethnic cleansing in 1945, efforts of pan-European State Socialist and Atlanticist integration, Europe’s imperial/colonial struggles and cultural-religious transformations. We will also consider the impact of the collapse of the Soviet Empire in Europe and the emergence of newly independent states in former Soviet spaces as well as the wars of Yugoslav disintegration and European integration. We will conclude with a survey of current issues in European political, cultural, and social life.
