HISTORY 5 - European Civilization from the Renaissance to the Present

Institution:

University of California-Berkeley

Subject:

History

Description:

This course is an introduction to European history from around 1500 to the present. The central questions that it addresses are how and why Europe--a small, relatively poor, and politically fragmented place-- became the motor of globalization and a world civilzation in its own right. Put differently how did "western" become an adjective that, for better and often for worse, stands in place of "modern".
