US & Latin America, Online Summer Course Available

Join History 4000 (US and Latin America) a second-session online summer course that focuses on historical origins of the relationship of US and Latin America in order to understand the present-day bearings.

We study how diplomats, businesses, organizations, and the public shaped international relations by conducting research on primary sources available in online collections. Regardless of the tone of the relationship, the outcome has always been highly influential to all parties involved. By looking at the formation of US policy and what is at stake for Latin Americans, through their mutually influence on each other, we can gain a better understanding of the complexities of our modern world. For example recently deceased president Hugo Chávez built his popularity in Venezuela and Latin America on his staunch opposition of American policies. But Venezuela has remained one of the most important oil exporters to the United States. The relationship with Venezuela in recent years illustrates tensions, historical conflict, cooperation and occasional indifference between the United States and Latin American nations.

Format:

The course is organized in three two-week modules:

  • 1st Module: 19th Century through WWII
  • 2nd Module: The Cold War
  • 3rd Module: The Present Day (1990s and 2000s)

In each module students discuss two prompts based on readings, watch lectures, and take one quiz. Students write two research papers (one due at the end of the first module, the second due either at the end of the second or the third module). Topics and online primary source collections that are circulated at the beginning of the class.
