HIST 3131 will study the history of the Soviet Republic of Armenia, when it was ruled by Communists and was part of the USSR in 1920-1991. It will chronicle the broad political, economic, social and cultural developments throughout 70 years of Soviet history and will then study in detail how these developments affected life in Armenia, one the fifteen union republics of the USSR, and relations between Soviet Armenia and the Armenian Diaspora outside the USSR, including the Armenian American community.

It will also help students to better comprehend the historical background to some contemporary developments in Transcaucasia (the South Caucasus), Turkey, Iran and the Arab states of Western Asia. 3.000 Credit hours 3.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture Social Sciences Department Course Attributes: Upper Division
