| Short Title: | Europe Since 1914 |
| Description: | This course will concentrate on political, social, economic, and intellectual legacies of the two world wars. Special emphasis will be placed upon the structure of peace and security after 1919 and the dictatorships, Bolshevik Russia, Fascist Italy, and Nazi Germany. Another object of the course will be to show how the breakup of the Hapsburg Monarchy led to the creation of a power vacuum in Eastern Central Europe which Nazi and Soviet imperialism filled in succession during the critical period 1938-1948, thereby terminating Western influence in that part of the Continent. After examining the Cold War and the Revolts against Soviet rule in Hungary and Czechoslovakia, the course will conclude with an assessment of the present status of East-West relations. |
