HIS 334 HISTORICIZING 9/11

Explores the historical context of September 11, 2001 through examination of the history of foreign affairs beginning in the late 18th century with the founding of the nation and continuing throughout the 20th century. The course also investigates the impact of global changes at the local level, particularly in New London. In an effort to connect the study of history to the larger New London community, the course will include an oral history component that will require students to conduct oral interviews of New London residents on a range of historical issues based on the first objective of the course.
