The primary objective of this course is to help students recognize and understand those challenges - and the legacies of the Cold War generally - as they pertain to ethnic and religious fundamentalism, economic dislocation, cultural homogenization, environmental degradation, and global terrorism and the so-called "War on Terror." This course is cross-listed as HI 419 and POL 419. It is offered alternate years. Prerequisite: Any 100 or 200 level history or political science course.
