Summer Session II: July 6 – August 7, 2009
How was the United States transformed from a fractured nation at the end of the Civil War to the political and economic global superpower it is today? In this course, we will answer that question by tracing the staggering changes in American life from 1865 to the start of the 21st century. We will consider the unifying forces of an expanding federal government and increasing consumer capitalism even as we examine the impact of sociopolitical forces that continue to divide American citizens. In the process, we will also evaluate the roles of technology, migration and shifting American ideologies of rights and identities in creating the modern American nation.
