What is revolution? Why does it happen? Where and when have revolutions occurred, and to what effect? This course addresses these questions by exploring a range of revolutions in Europe and Asia during the past five centuries. A primary focus of the course will center on analyzing and comparing some of the most iconic and influential revolutions in world history: the French Revolution of 1789, the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, and the Chinese Communist Revolution of 1921-1949. In addition, we will analyze the causes and impact of a range of other revolutionary moments, including the German Peasant Revolt of 1525, the Taiping Rebellion, the Meiji Restoration, the 1905 Revolution in Russia, the 1911 Revolution in China, China's Cultural Revolution, the protests by students and intellectuals that rocked continental Europe in 1968, and the "velvet revolutions" and near revolutions that transformed state socialism in 1989. As we compare revolutions over time, we will try to discern links or lines of influence between revolutionary movements. We will also explore how particular revolutionary movements contributed to a shared repertoire of revolutionary thought and action. No previous study of history is necessary for this course; first-year students are welcome.

Economic growth and the growth of individual liberty, we are often told, are perennial and permanent features of American life. In our era of economic instability and climate change, however, both the sustainability and desirability of growth is increasingly questioned. But if we are to better adapt to growth’s future, we’ll first need to understand growth’s past. In this course we will examine American history through the framework of ‘growth’ from the Reconstruction Era to the present. We’ll analyze primary sources by groups ranging from civil rights activists to environmental preservationists. We’ll conduct multidisciplinary inquiries into controversial questions around who growth has benefitted, and why.  And we’ll apply our insights into historically-informed arguments on how growth can - or can’t - better serve Americans today.

This introductory course offers a survey of Britain in the twentieth- and early twenty-first centuries. We start with the death of Queen Victoria in 1901, when Britain was the most powerful country in the world, and move chronologically through the century. Particular emphasis is given to the multi-layered British experience of global conflicts (the first and second world wars, the cold war and the "war on terror"), the relationships with the empire, Europe and the United States, as well as the creation of the welfare state and a diverse multicultural society. We also examine how Britain used its soft power, particularly music, to retain its influence and promote a British sensibility “Here, There, and Everywhere.”

Modern Africa and its shifting contours of social, political and economic life has been shaped by its contested past. The class takes a chronological survey approach to the history of modern Africa. It examines the history of the continent from 1800, covering emotive themes which include slavery, colonialism, culture, decolonization and leisure. What was the impact of slavery in Africa, how did indigenous communities respond to and challenge colonial rule, how did Africans create meaningful lives under colonial rule? The course centers the lives of Africans as they navigated different historical processes as proactive actors with agency, and grapples with the enduring legacies of slavery and colonialism and their far-reaching implications in shaping contemporary realities.

Latin America is one of the world’s most diverse regions, now with over six hundred million people of African, Asian, European, Indigenous, Middle Eastern, and interracially-mixed descent, in at least twenty different independent nations. The largest Latin American country, Portuguese-speaking Brazil, and the second largest, the world’s most populous Spanish-speaking country, Mexico, as well as countries in the Spanish Caribbean like Cuba, Central America, and in Spanish South America, encompass rich and complex cultures and peoples. This course is an introductory historical survey of Latin America. It focuses on the tremendous, troubled, and often traumatic transformations and transitions that many of its distinct nations and peoples have experienced in struggles for independence, sovereignty, and revolution. The class examines the main historical issues and challenges of Latin America’s post-colonial independent national period, including persistent inequality, regional and national integration and disintegration, and global and international relations, as well as revolution, war, military rule, popular social movements, civil reconciliation, and continual violence. Its goal is to understand the incredibly complex and diverse meanings and histories of Latin America to the present. LAIS Core Course.

The New York City you know is the product of conflicts and collusions going back centuries. Underneath the city’s streets, underneath the subways and sewer lines, is a history of struggle over the design and use of urban space. This course will help you uncover that history. We will apply frameworks drawn from a variety of disciplines - science and technology studies, urban economics, racial capitalism, and more - to interrogate historical sources and narratives around foundational topics in New York’s history ranging from the building of the subways to the fiscal crisis of the 1970s. We will identify gaps and silences within these narratives, and conduct original inquiries that will deepen our collective understanding of Gotham’s development. And we will apply our research to present-day New York, developing historically-informed arguments for how the city can address present-day challenges around social, economic, and ecological injustice.

Copernicus' claim that the sun, not the earth, was the center of the known universe is perhaps the most famous episode in which an understanding of the natural world at once transforms lived experience and becomes embroiled in ever-wider theological, political, and social conflict. Starting with Giordano Bruno, "the philosopher of Copernicanism," this course will look at a series of such shifts in scientific perception and how they were received, misunderstood, or initially simply ignored by wider society. A key theme will be the development of popular science, particularly as written by practicing scientists, and science fiction as a means to anticipate and grasp such transformations. Also discussed will be the global origins of natural philosophy and science, particularly in astronomy, its development through European hegemony and colonialism, and its return as a global set of norms and institutions. Authors read will include Ibn Rushd, Bacon, Descartes, Leibniz, Newton, Humboldt, Hegel, Lovelace, Mach, Nietzsche, Blumenberg, Keller, Kuhn, and Stengers.

“Our decline has been so marked that today we are not only no longer a world power, but we are not in the first rank even as a European one.” So wrote Britain's ambassador to France in his farewell telegram to London in 1979. By the end of the seventies, Britain seemed to be standing at the edge of the abyss. The optimism of the sixties had long gone, as was the Empire that had for so long been the source of British prosperity and power. Yet for all the upheaval and loss of confidence, the seventies was also a period of enormous cultural originality, social change, and political ambition. From environmentalism, Europeanism, multiculturalism, gay rights, and legislation on sex discrimination and race relations, to cheap package holidays and color TV, this chaotic decade brought about profound and lasting change— and all to the soundtrack of The Selecter, David Bowie, and The Clash.

Apocalypses, or revealed futures of “end times” have long exercised a powerful hold on our imaginations. Today we grapple with anxiety over climate change or increasingly autonomous and self-conscious AI. But apocalyptic thinking emerged first in the ancient world, not only as a source of fear, but of ecstatic anticipation as well. This course will introduce students to the origins and development of apocalyptic thought, as well as its social and political catalysts and consequences. Beginning with the emergence of the apocalyptic history in ancient Jerusalem in the 2nd c. BCE, it traces changes in religious and political writings through the emergence of Christianity, the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, the advent of Islam, the Black Death, Columbus’s voyages to the Americas, and the Protestant Reformation. We will explore how apocalyptic writing and thought engaged with the challenges of famine, pandemic disease, church reform, religious violence, and global exploration. Through these ideas and experiences, students will encounter a range of emotional and intellectual reactions to the expectation of an imminent end—not only terror and panic, but also hope and joy.

What made the First World War a "world" war? Many factors contributed to the conflict's designation as a world war, but the significant role of Africa, Africans, and members of the African Diaspora in the war is not least among them. Some Africans and members of the African diaspora signed up in response to a call for volunteers, others were ruthlessly coerced, and many more became involved for reasons that fell somewhere in the uncertain middle ground between coercion and willing participation. African-Americans, and African subjects under French, German, and British colonial rule in Africa and the Caribbean were drawn into the war's vortex. Following DuBois' prescient observation that "[t]he problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color-line," this course visits the Great War with an eye to unpacking the experiences, choices, and impacts of Africans and members of the African diaspora in the context of both empire and white supremacy. Gender - in conversation with questions regarding masculinity, warfare, and race - will be a vital course theme. Working from a wide range of primary materials and selected theoretical and secondary works, students will have the opportunity both to form questions in response to what they find in the readings, and explore possible answers, using the skills of the historian. This course is part of the Racial Justice Initiative, an interdisciplinary collaboration among students and faculty to further the understanding of racial inequality and injustice in the United States and beyond.

This course seeks to broaden understandings of modern democracy by locating populism and its tensions with myriad forms of expertise, for example, orthodox religious authorities, Enlightenment thought, legal frameworks for citizenship, abolitionism, and state forms of information-gathering and knowledge production. Opposition to book learning, intellectualism, and expertise may only be as old as the wide-scale presence of books, intellectuals, and experts in social life. In other words, however seemingly universal and transhistorical folk knowledge, proverbial wisdom, and, especially, common sense are presented, their meaning, significance, and practice have changed over time. Their politicization in France, Great Britain, and the United States is, in fact, distinctly modern. Born not only of struggles between tradition and innovation, common sense emerged in the early-modern global contact between Africans, indigenous peoples, and Europeans, lettered and illiterate, articulating rights during the revolutionary formations of nation and empire. The course begins around the time of Thomas Paine’s Common Sense and ends with the trickster politics of later 20th/21st-century Brazil, Ghana, and the United States.

What does it mean to say, “I am [a] bourgeois?” The long history of a socio-economic category is closely linked to the histories of serfdom and slavery, religion and politics, cities, and, eventually, overseas trade. The surface that the European bourgeoisie presents to us veils a complex, multi-racial, often bi-continental family romance. In the African American vernacular, bougie will signify both the triumph of aspiration and achievement, and moral and cultural bankruptcy. It is the “white mask” that enables the construction of national, political identity even as it developed out of the global circulations of goods, ideas, and people. The rise of the bourgeoisie is also bound to our understanding of the rise of capitalism, nuclear families, and the flourishing of the individual. Given that so much of modern life seems to owe its existence to this class of people, this course explores how it came into being from a global perspective. This course is designed for both introductory and advanced students.

How and why did globalization start? This course embarks on a historical exploration, guiding students through various epochs in search of a roots of Modern global world. This examination spans from the conquests of Chinggis Khan's armies in 13th-century Beijing and Baghdad through the sweeping impact of the Black Death across the Eurasian world to the trade-centric empires in the Atlantic and Indian basins, culminating in the neo- imperialistic influences of the United States, Soviet Union, China, and Western Europe during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, and finishing on the phenomenon of contemporary global nomads and global pandemics. Studying the history of global connectivity, the inquiry delves into the question of whether earlier manifestations of globalization provide insights into our present era and seeks to elucidate the dynamics of historical and contemporary global divides. A multifaceted analysis of the various types of primary materials is employed to comprehend the myriad forces shaping global interactions, encompassing religious, economic, environmental, ideological, military, and political dimensions. The course's primary objective is to unravel the intricate interplay of factors that both united and fragmented the world over the last eight centuries. Special emphasis is placed on the pivotal role of empires, broadly construed, in shaping global connectivity. In collaborative endeavors, students will engage in weekly group-writing assignments centered on primary historical sources (written, visual etc.) fostering a deeper understanding of the course's thematic content. Finally, this course invites students to learn history of globalization globally. Facilitating global connectivity, it provides a platform for students to connect with peers across more than twenty locations spanning from Bangladesh to Lebanon, France to Nigeria, and Argentina to Afghanistan. Simultaneously undertaken by students in these various locations, the course encourages active participation through the exchange and sharing of ideas on the dedicated course Gallery site. This collaborative approach in this Global Core Course enables a dynamic cross-cultural dialogue, enriching the learning experience by fostering a global perspective on historical themes.

This research seminar will study the violent interactions between race, religion, and revolution in Latin America from the early twentieth-century to the present, to understand how these interactions have mattered to the region’s history and how they explain some of its most violent current conflicts. The very name "Latin America" derived from and became associated with specific racial, religious, and revolutionary meanings through a history of violence. The seminar will begin by studying how racial concepts formed and became fixed ideas through distinct revolutionary-inspired intellectual debates on interracial mixture and indigenous rights. Based in Mexico and Peru, the formation of concepts like global mestizaje, a "cosmic race," and indigenismo involved rival valuations of each nation’s indigenous and colonial histories and cultures, with lasting effects. The seminar will then explore the simultaneous rise of wars and conflicts over radically different religious meanings and faiths, within and outside of Catholicism, including native religions and the rise of Evangelical Protestant Christianity. The latter part of the seminar will focus on Guatemala, which dramatically combined extreme violence over race, religion, and revolution, and focused global attention on indigenous rights and human rights. These histories will allow for a deeper understanding of the rise of different forms of violence in Central America today, and therefore of the current human rights, migrant, and refugee crisis centered there and involving other parts of Latin America and the US. This seminar emphasizes the narratives, interpretations, and voices of participants in the history, and critical engagement with these primary sources in the writing of the history.

Why history does matter for Modernity? The significance of history permeates the public sphere of Modernity, influencing both its political and intellectual dimensions. The coexistence of history with these facets is pivotal in both scholarly and popular discourses, as evidenced by terms such as "appropriation of the past," "politics of history," and "captivity of the past." The contentious position of history in contemporary society arises from the evolving status of historical knowledge and contemporary efforts to redefine history within the realms of academia and art. This course aims to scrutinize the dynamics of historical knowledge during the 20th and 21st centuries, characterized by the scrutiny of various humanitarian and social disciplines questioning the academic standing of history. Our exploration will encompass ongoing debates surrounding the status of History, various 'historical turns,' and their interpretations as expressions of "politics," "memory," and "narrative." Additionally, we will contemplate the ambiguous status of the Humanities in Modernity as a whole, including the nuanced nature of the term "Modernity" itself. In the analysis of history’s interaction with disciplines such as Psychology, Sociology, Literary Criticism, Linguistics, and Political Studies, we will employ theoretical frameworks influenced by the ideas of notable scholars such as Erik H. Erikson, Norbert Elias, Immanuel Wallerstein, Ernest Gellner, and Michel Foucault, among others. The primary objective of the course is to foster critical skills essential for the examination and acquisition of historical facts, while also cultivating the ability to differentiate between "history as the past" and "history as a narrative about the past." Another goal is to scrutinize the revolutionary transformation within the contemporary Historiography (as a major Conference) – the discourse on the subject of history and the historical method.

This course revisits the history of Africa’s anti-colonial struggles by appreciating the specific role of radio as a media and as a technology from the 1930s to the 1990s. While the anti-colonial war was raging on the continent, a parallel war between colonial governments and revolutionary forces was unfolding in the airwaves. It was a struggle for the hearts and minds in which both parties used propaganda to garner support from the masses. The course uses war-time radio broadcasting as a window to examine the history of Africa’s liberation struggle. Bearing in mind the different African encounters with colonialism, the course uses specific country case studies and themes. Some of the themes include international solidarity, technology, exile, the Cold War, and propaganda. The course centers on African agency in using available technologies and resources to contend with well-resourced and technologically superior colonial governments. At the end of the term, students will have a nuanced appreciation of the multiple arenas in which the anti-colonial wars on the continent were fought as well as the multiple small acts of resistance deployed by Africans to liberate themselves.

The Senior Project Colloquium is required of all History concentrators who are writing a senior project. Offered only in the fall semester, it is ideally taken concurrently with HIST 401, for which students will meet regularly with their advisor. (If necessary, the colloquium may instead be taken prior to HIST 401 or concurrently with HIST 402, with approval from the instructor and the project advisor.) In the colloquium we will explore the diverse approaches historians take to the research and writing process and reflect on the methodological approaches of various sub- disciplinary fields within the historical guild. The colloquium will guide students through the basic steps of starting a major research project. These include surveying a relevant topical literature, formulating an interpretive question, building a bibliography, identifying an archive, interpreting primary sources, engaging other historians, and synthesizing an argument. Assignments addressing each of these steps will contribute to development of the final senior project. The colloquium will feature collaborative work, in the form of collective brainstorming, peer review, writing workshops, and more formal conference-style presentation. The colloquium is a component of the 8 credits of the senior project. As with HIST 401, it will be graded on an S/U basis, but will contribute to the final grade of the project.
