HIST 96.22 Nazism: Culture, Society, War

This seminar will explore the origins, nature, and consequences of Nazism. Drawing on a wide variety of sources, we will discuss: what were the ideological, social, and political origins of the Nazi movement? How did it succeed in mobilizing so many Germans, and what were the characteristics of the regime it created? How and why did it unleash war and genocide? Alongside reading and discussions, students will also conduct independent research on a related topic.
