The United States Since 1877

This course surveys the history of the United States from the end of Reconstruction to the present day paying particular attention to the following themes:

  1. The power of historical memory and narrative, or why it is that certain versions of the past are remembered, recorded, and disseminated more so than others.
  2. The multi-ethnic/racial and cultural origins of the United States.
  3. The origins and legacies of social, political, and economic inequality.
  4. The role of migration (domestic and international) on the development of economics, politics, and culture.
  5. The process of urbanization, or why cities and regions develop the way they do.
  6. The centrality of social movements in the maintenance of the American democratic system.
