This course offers an introduction to the major themes and events in modern global history from 1750 to the present. Unlike courses that focus on the history of a specific country or region of the world, this course will explore the interconnected nature of peoples, ideas, goods, commerce, and events across the entire globe. Through an examination of the Atlantic Revolutions of the eighteenth century, the Industrial Revolutions of the nineteenth century, the rise and fall of global imperialism, two massive world wars and a global cold war, and the increasingly globalized nature of economics, diseases, technology, and political affairs in the modern era, this course will ask us to consider the relationship of individuals and their local affairs to the wider world. Through a wide range of primary sources such as diaries, newspaper articles, letters, political treatises, novels, and films, we will explore how humans across the world experienced and thought about the world and their place within it; secondary sources will help us situate these experiences within their historical context.
