Description:

4.00 credits (4.00 lec) This course is a survey of modern world history from the rise of Europe to the present era, and of how the globe was linked through cultural, racial, religious contact and clash; migration industrialization; and imperialism. Students will examine how technological, economic, social, religious, political and cross-cultural factors combined to influence the expansion of the West and, in turn, the development of Africa, Latin America, and Asia. Both global and interdisciplinary perspectives will be used to help students develop a better understanding of how different peoples understood, construed and developed their place in the modern world; how different regions of the world influenced each other in their response to the West; and why there were both similarities and differences in the ways people both accommodated and resisted Western domination. Fulfills MnTC Goal Areas 5 and 8.
