HISTORY OF THE WORLD (SLHS)

Students will examine the historical development of the world. Although the pre-modern period of history will be addressed, particular emphasis will be placed on the modern period and how industrialization has affected both developed and developing regions of the world. Special attention will also be given to methodologies related to historical anthropology, as well as economic, social, cultural and intellectual history. Questions of race, class and gender will be interwoven with an awareness of global diversity and multi-culturalism.
