This course considers problems and issues that have affected humanity since the end of the Cold War. Specifically, it explores how the end of the Cold War contributed to the creation of a new world order, and how that order has served to shape world societies and the challenges they currently face. While the end of the Cold War contributed in no small measure to the expansion and acceleration of globalization (i.e., the economic, cultural, and political integration of global communities), it also produced a variety of new and serious challenges, several of which are directly attributable to developments in the period from the end of World War Two to 1991. 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 socalled "War on Terror." This course is crosslisted as HI 419 and POL 419. It is offered alternate years. Prerequisite: Any 100 or 200 level history or political science course.
