HIST 206H - The 1950’s and 60’s: Honors Seminar

Credits: Four (4)
Prerequisite: Membership in Bascom Honors Program
This seminar will integrate social, economic, political, and cultural history to explore the dramatic changes that occurred in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s. We will study a variety of events and people, but we will focus particular attention on two major themes of the period: the Cold War (both foreign and domestic) and the activities of various social movements (Civil Rights, Peace/Anti-war, Women). We will attempt to understand how Americans viewed their times by examining a variety of primary and secondary sources and popular culture examples such as magazines, movies, television, and music.
