With COVID-19 still a threat, I strongly prefer to hold office hours remotely. If the nature of your meeting warrants a face-to-face meeting, then we can arrange one in advance via email or MS Teams. Please contact me on MS Teams/email before dropping by the office.

You may of course write to me at any time, but please only expect immediate responses during scheduled office hours. However, I will always reply to your queries by the end of the next business day.

Office: Building 6, Room 9.

Description

Pre-requisite: HIS 1301 or HIS 2301
This course aims to survey world history in the twentieth century from a specifically international perspective - looking at war, diplomacy and cooperation between states. The origins, courses and outcomes of the two World Wars are studied as are other conflicts that have helped shape the international scene. The rise of the superpowers and the Cold War is examined together with the various efforts at international co-operation such as the League of Nations, the United Nations, European integration, and NATO.
