HIST 6640
Approaches to Modern Chinese History

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2016-2017.

This graduate seminar examines developments in the field of modern Chinese history from the postwar to the present. Through the critical reading of scholarship both classic and contemporary, we will familiarize ourselves with the main historiographical debates that have shaped the field, and think through the process and politics in the writing of modern Chinese history. We will also discuss ways that these debates can be brought into the classroom for undergraduate teaching. In addition, students will work together with the instructor to design research projects of their own, and to situate these in the driving questions of the field. Background knowledge of modern Chinese history required.

When Offered Fall.
