ID1800 “Holocaust, Genocide, and Modern Humanity” Course Description

This course introduces the history of the European Holocaust and addresses the wider questions of genocide in the modern world. Examination of these events using comparative context (including such events as Armenian, Stalinist, and Cambodian massacres and the Rwandan and Darfur genocides) and discussion of their impact on modern cultural, political, intellectual developments would be explored. Students would be exposed to some of the greatest moral and ethical dilemmas in modern history to examine the notion of humanity. How does an understanding of the origins and virulence of genocide challenge societies to be more tolerant, pluralistic, and open? This is an interdisciplinary course drawing from history and the humanities, the social sciences, and education.
