GS, H, SS- This course examines a selected nation and region with a focus on historical and cultural development. Within the broad framework of history and culture, students will explore the various manifestations of these dynamic forces as they relate to politics, religion, gender, social and economic development, the environment, personal identity, and the nation and region's interconnectedness with the larger global community. Students will be asked to engage multiple perspectives, negotiate the differences they find, and begin to construct an understanding of global citizenship. This course may require service learning participation.
