America, 1955-1991
This course focuses on the history of the United States from the end of the “Crucial Decade” until the end of the Cold War.

Topics to be considered include: the rise and fall of the post-1945 social welfare state, Eisenhower’s New Look and JFK’s New Frontier, the Vietnam War, civil rights activism, increasing American investment in the Middle East, the modern conservative movement, and globalization and its contexts.
