HIST 8.10 World War II: Ideology, Empire, Race

This introductory-level course explores the origins, nature, and legacies of the most dramatic war in modern times.

Drawing on a variety of sources, students will also learn about the war’s impact on policymakers, soldiers, and civilians on the home fronts. Open to all classes.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
