Course details
This is a history of international relations in what has been called the age of extremes. It is the story of declining European influence as two world wars cause colonial structures to crumble, the independent states of Asia and Africa to emerge, and the world to be dominated by two super powers, the USA and the USSR. The scientific and industrial revolutions of earlier centuries accelerate dramatically, causing global transformations that give rise to conflicting ideologies: communism, fascism, Zionism, pan-Arabism and political Islam. It is a course designed to equip you with a comprehensive understanding of the forces that have shaped the modern world order.
