History/Political Science 372 assesses the historical developments, individuals, and transformations of the twentieth century through the prism of revolutions and revolutionary movements. The course first concentrates on revolutions in Mexico (1910-1940), Russia (1905-1939), and China (1911-1958). It then examines patterns of revolution and counter-revolution in Argentina, as well as the transnational movements of 1968 and 1989. This course provides a thematic and comparative approach to the study of modern global history and politics.
