HIST 1815 East Asian Survey
In this survey of East Asian societies, we will focus on the cultural, social, and political history of China, Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Korea. While a chronology is utilized to frame the course, we will also study the region thematically to highlight the interconnections and interactions between and among East Asian societies and the Western world. These themes include imperialism and colonization, ethnicity, rural vs. urban, materialism, war, rebellions, and family structure.
