SUMMARY:624: The American Western
DESCRIPTION:HIST 624 1A / POLSC 624 1A: The American Western\nThis course is an intensive study of several classic American Westerns\, in both print and film.

SUMMARY:506: The Rise of Modern America\, 1914-1945
DESCRIPTION:HIST 506 2A / POLSC 506 2A: The Rise of Modern America\, 1914-1945\nWith the exception of the Civil War era\, it is difficult to find another thirty-year period in U.S. history during which the nation underwent such dramatic change. In 1914 the United States was no more than a regional power\, with a primarily rural demography and a relatively unobtrusive federal government. Thanks to the experience of two world wars\, a major cultural conflict (the 1920s)\, and a disastrous economic crisis the country was transformed into the global economic and military power that it remains to this day. This course will examine the cultural\, economic\, military\, and diplomatic events and trends of the period 1914-1945. \nMaterials: Syllabus Course Pack

SUMMARY:510: Great American Texts – Democracy in America
DESCRIPTION:HIST 510 3A / POLSC 510 3A: Great American Texts – Democracy in America\nAlexis de Tocqueville’s Democracy in America is the best book on democracy and the best book on America. He recognized the justice of democratic equality but also was concerned how the passion for equality could degrade human dignity\, undermine liberty\, and sap public spiritedness. As a friendly critic of democracy\, Tocqueville looked for principles\, practices\, and institutions that are both compatible with democracy but also support excellence\, freedom\, and the civic virtues. This course will examine as much of the book as we can and will focus on Tocqueville’s reflections on the Puritans\, political institutions\, civil associations\, slavery\, Native Americans\, women and the family\, public opinion\, happiness\, and religion. \nMaterials: Syllabus Course Pack
