EUST 100 America Inside Out 6 credits
"America" has often served as a canvas for projecting European anxieties about economic, social and political modernity. Admiration of technological progress and democratic stability went hand in hand with suspicions about its–actual and supposed–materialism, religiosity and mass culture. These often contradictory perceptions of the United States were crucial in the process of forming European national imaginaries and myths up to and including an European identity. Accordingly, this course will explore some of the most important examples of the European imagination of the United States–from Michel de Montaigne to Hannah Arendt.

EUST 110 State of the Nation: the Politics of Citizenship 6 credits
This course explores the politics of citizenship in Modern Europe. Students will be introduced to the history of the European nation-state with a special focus on France, Germany and the UK. They will become familiar with basic concepts such as state, nation, ethnic and civic citizenship and how these are used by scholars and practitioners. This historical and conceptual backdrop will prepare them to understand post-war developments in West European politics, most importantly the politics of welfare and migration and their continued salience. Students will be challenged to think critically about larger questions about national and non-national identity and political membership.

HIST 141 Europe in the Twentieth Century 6 credits
This course explores developments in European history in a global context from the final decade of the nineteenth century through to the present. We will focus on the impact of nationalism, war, and revolution on the everyday experiences of women and men, and also look more broadly on the chaotic economic, political, social, and cultural life of the period. Of particular interest will be the rise of fascism and communism, and the challenge to Western-style liberal democracy, followed by the Cold War and communism's collapse near the end of the century.
