Section Information for Fall 2014
NOTE: 6 CREDIT COURSE
Team taught by Prof. Brian Platt and Prof. Benedict Carton
The last major global conflict ended in 1945, but the "cold war" that followed was still punctuated by violence throughout the world. In the second half of the twentieth century, this violence involved state actors as well as nationalist and religious movements. Our course particularly examines how people in Africa and Asia coped with the memories of collective violence in the post-1945 era. We focus on the causes and consequences of the atomic bombings of Japan, Japanese aggression in East Asia during World War Two, and apartheid rule and democratic reconciliation in South Africa. This six-credit class includes lectures, discussions, and films.
