Course Description

This graduate seminar (cross-listed in the departments of History and Anthropology) explores a series of contemporary keywords in history, politics, and theory.  Through the close readings of primary sources as well as classic and more recent historical and theoretical texts, we will consider questions of war, violence, genocide, trauma, memory, liberalism and illiberalism, and fascism.  The course is designed to introduce graduate students to concepts and debates in History, Anthropology, and critical theory with a view of thinking about the present political moment.
