Institution:

The University of Montana-Western

Subject:

Description:

The course will pick up where HIST 320 left off. Nazi Germany domi-nated Central Europe after 1933, and its subsequent defeat gave birth to historical dynamics that still dominate Central Europe. Thus, this class will focus on the history of Germany from 1933 until the present. The course examines Nazi strategies at establishing a totalitarian regime, the fascist world-view, World War II, resistance to the Nazis, and the Holo-caust. Post-war Central Europe will also be examined through the lens of Germany, a state that today plays a central role in the European Union. Students will show understanding of the material through class discussion, group projects, written assignments based on critical core readings and library research, and examinations. Lecture, discussion, and group projects-research. Prereq: PSY/SOC 220 or ANTH/HIST/ POLS/PSY/SOC 221 and ANTH/HIST/POLS/PSY/SOC 222, or c/i. (spring/even-numbered years)
