Overall Educational Objective |
To understand the patterns of state-society relations in the transition to modernity and how the different developmental paths adopted during this transition influenced political and economic development. |
Course Description |
This course focuses on political and social transformation in modernizing times. Specifically, it discusses how the ‘West’ constructed ‘its supremacy vis-a-vis the ‘Rest’ and the worldwide consequences of that emerging supremacy. It covers topics as diverse as the Protestant Reformation, colonization and its outcomes, the politics of the Ottoman Empire, the American revolution, and the non-Western empires of Russia and Japan. It thus offers a detour of politics and society across the world in the transition to modernity. |
